How to Make Potato Wedges In the Oven

You'll find a detailed ingredient list and step-by-step instructions in the recipe below, but let's go over the basics of making perfect homemade potato wedges:

How to Cut Potato Wedges

Use a sharp knife to cut the potato in half lengthwise. Place the cut side down, then cut it in half lengthwise again to make quarters. Cut each quarter in half again to make eight potato wedges.

Best Potatoes for Potato Wedges

This recipe calls for russet potatoes because they’re extra starchy, which means they stay fluffy on the inside and crisp up nicely on the outside. Plus, russets are super easy to find at any grocery store.

Potato Wedges Seasoning

These oven-baked potato wedges are seasoned with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Parmesan cheese adds a little extra flavor.

How Long to Bake Potato Wedges

In an oven preheated to 425 degrees F, the potato wedges should be perfectly cooked in about 25 minutes. You’ll know they’re ready when they are easily pierced with a fork.

What to Serve With Potato Wedges

Serve these potato wedges with classic entrees (try our recipe for the Juiciest Hamburgers Ever) and your favorite dipping sauce, such as Homemade Ketchup or Honey Mustard.

How to Store Potato Wedges

Store your potato wedges in an airtight container for up to five days. Avoid reheating them in the microwave. Opt for the oven, air fryer, or stove instead.

Can You Freeze Potato Wedges?

Yes! It’s actually quite easier to freeze potato wedges. Simply flash freeze the cooked wedges on a parchment-lined baking sheet. When they’re frozen, transfer them to freezer-safe storage bags labeled with the date.

“My family ate these all up so fast,” says mariewalker2365. “I added garlic salt and used fine Parmesan cheese. Soooo good! We like our food a bit crispy so I let them stay in the oven for ten minutes longer and they were absolute perfection.”

“These potato wedges are so good,” according to Betty. “A salad on the side goes well with it.”
