Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. If some of the potatoes are larger, cut them in half to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the potatoes to the bowl and toss until they are entirely coated in the mayo mixture.
If using Parmesan cheese, sprinkle it over the coated potatoes and toss gently to ensure even distribution.
Spread the potatoes out evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are in a single layer for proper crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, flipping the potatoes halfway through to ensure they cook and brown evenly.
Remove the potatoes from the oven once they are golden brown and crispy on the edges.
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the top as a garnish and serve immediately. Enjoy your Way Too Easy Mayo Potatoes!
