Crispy Oven Potatoes
Description:
These potatoes come out nice and brown and crispy. Even if there is 1/4 cup of oil, it’s less than deep frying! You don’t have to peel the potatoes, in fact, I only scrub them thoroughly before slicing them.

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a cookie sheet with lite olive oil or other vegetable oil.

Continue layering with the remaining potatoes, fanning them slightly and forming concentric circles. Keep the same center but diminish the size of each circle as you layer.

Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are lightly browned and tender, about 45 minutes.

Use a flat spatula to remove the potatoes from the cookie sheet and slide them onto a serving platter.
