Wash and cut the baby potatoes in half for more even cooking. Pat them dry with a clean dishtowel or paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Place the halved potatoes in a large bowl and drizzle with the olive oil. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss again until all the potatoes are well coated.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
Place the seasoned potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
Air fry the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping.
Once the potatoes are golden and crispy, remove them from the air fryer.
Garnish the air-fried potatoes with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy them on their own as a delicious vegan snack.
