Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized cubes, roughly about 1/2 inch in size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix well.
Add the potato cubes to the bowl and toss until all the potatoes are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes to ensure it is hot enough for crispy potatoes.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, being careful not to overcrowd the basket to allow proper air circulation.
Air fry the potatoes for 15 minutes, then shake the basket to turn the potatoes for even cooking. Continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Check for tenderness by inserting a fork into a potato cube. If it slides in easily, your potatoes are done. If needed, cook for an additional 3-5 minutes.
Carefully remove the potatoes from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving dish. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Serve immediately as a side dish or enjoy as a delicious Paleo snack.
