Parmesan Crusted Potato Wedges
If you have spare potatoes from your fall harvest like we do, a great way to switch them up is by making parmesan crusted potato wedges. My kids are getting sick of just having potatoes, but add parmesan and seasoning and they are a hit!
These are so easy to make and the smaller you cut the wedges, the quicker they will cook! The ingredients needed are staples we have around our house always, so it works well last minute.
Ingredients for Parmesan Crusted Potato Wedges
- 4-6 large potatoes
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp sea salt (my favorite is Redmond Sea Salt, this is not an affiliate link!)
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp italian seasoning
- 1/3-1/2 cup shredded or grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet.
Cut each potato in half the long way and then into 4-5 smaller wedges per each half. The smaller these are cut, the quicker they will cook.
Once they are all cut into wedges, place them into a large bowl. Drizzle the olive oil over the top and using a wooden spoon (or something similar) stir them around to coat them.
Add the parmesan cheese and toss them to get the cheese evenly dispersed.
In a small bowl, combine the sea salt, garlic powder and italian seasoning. Sprinkle over the potato wedges.
Spread the parmesan crusted potato wedges evenly on the prepared baking sheet, making sure the skin sides are down.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a form and golden. For crunchier wedges, leave them in longer.
What type of potatoes are best for Parmesan Crusted Potato Wedges?
We make a lot of things with Yukon Gold potatoes bacause we prefer the flavor and texture. That is also what we plant most in our garden. Russet potatoes would work well here also. I have not tried any other types of potatoes.
Shredded Parmesan or Grated?
It’s really a matter of preference here. I don’t think you can go wrong. Today, I used grated because that is what I had. But shredded would work well too, It would just create a slightly different texture.
