Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp bacon fat room temp or melted
  • 1 tsp pink salt or kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp white pepper
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika smoked or sweet
  • 2 tsp coconut sugar optional
  • 2 Tbsp baking powder

Instructions

  • First, preheat oven to 425F.
  • Next, scrub and wash potatoes. Pat dry and slice length-wise. Slice each half into 4 wedges. For bigger potatoes, you may have to slice into 6 wedges.
  • Soak sliced potatoes in cold water while you finish all of them. Drain and pat dry.
  • On a baking sheet, add your potato wedges and season generously with seasonings of your choice and baking powder. Add your oil/fat and mix around until the baking powder has absorbed all of the oil and created a coating around each wedge.
  • Lay out each piece evenly in one layer on the baking sheet. Do not stack them.
  • Bake at 425F for approx. 10-15 minutes. Flip about halfway through cooking (about 5 min).
  • Wedges will be golden and crispy but fluffy inside. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
