Questions?
Cook them at 400F for 20-25 minutes.
Yes, it's okay. We are cooking them long enough, and shaking the basket frequently enough, that every slice will be able to cook through and get crispy.
👩🍳Tips & Tricks
Try to cut the potatoes as uniformly as possible so they all cook evenly.
Don't make them any smaller than ¼ inch. You'll be getting into chip territory at that point.
