Roasted Mini Potatoes are crispy and flavorful. They’re a quick and delicious side dish that requires minimal effort and yields excellent results!
When I did Whole30, the only things that would satisfy a carb craving were these baby roasted potatoes. I made them at least twice a week and they’re still my go-to veggie side dish!
Roasted Mini Potatoes go with just about everything, like this Air Fryer Pistachio Crusted Salmon, these Vegetarian Stuffed Peppers, and definitely these Bacon Mushroom Smothered Pork Chops!
They’re such an easy side dish made with minimal ingredients and will have the entire family asking for more. Sometimes simple recipes are best!
The Best Roasted Mini Potatoes
Slowly roasting the potatoes brings out their best flavor. It keeps them from drying out on the inside, while leaving them crispy on the outside.
Whenever I make this mini potato recipe, I throw them in about 30 minutes before I’m ready to start cooking dinner.
This is a great time to throw in a load of laundry or get a quick at-home workout in!
These mini potatoes may be small in size but they are exploding with flavor from the fresh chopped herbs! You’ll be surprised at how addicting they are.
What you’ll need for these Roasted Baby Potatoes
To make these Mini Roasted Potatoes, you’ll need:
- 1 lb mini potatoes
- 2-3 cloves of garlic
- rosemary
- parsley
- thyme
- olive oil
Fresh herbs are best, but if you can’t get them, you can use dried herbs instead. Although, I highly recommend garnishing the potatoes with fresh chopped parsley!
How to cook Small Potatoes in the oven

2. Combine the ingredients. Toss the mini potatoes, garlic, rosemary, parsley, thyme, olive oil, salt, and pepperin a medium sized mixing bowl untilthe potatoesare fully coated.
3. Bake the potatoes. Add thepotatoesto an 8-10” baking dish and cover with foil. Bake for 30-40 minutes.
4. Finish baking the potatoes. Remove the potatoes from the oven and tossthemin the pan with a wooden spoon, increase heat to 450 F. Bake, uncovered, for an additional 10-15 minutes or until crispy and easy to poke with a fork.
Garnish them with fresh chopped parsley and serve!
What to serve with Oven Roasted Small Potatoes
Pair these Slow Roasted Tiny Potatoes with Pork Chops, Grilled Halibut,Slow Cooker Pulled Pork. I also love serving roasted potatoes alongside some fresh-made Salmon Cakes!
You know what else goes really well with these potatoes? Air Fryer Chicken! It’s so good and so juicy, you’ve got to try it.
I don’t know what I would have done if potatoes weren’t allowed in the Whole30 diet! They were pretty much the only thing I could eat that would completely satisfy me with dinner,but you don’t have to be on any sort of diet to enjoy these mini potatoes!
How to store Mini Potatoes
Baby potatoes like cool, dark places. So storing them in a mesh or paper bag in the refrigerator will keep them happy.
Plastic won’t allow the potatoes to breathe so if you brought them home from the store in one, just be sure to remove them before storing. Properly stored potatoes will last for 4-6 months!
Oven Roasted Baby Potatoes FAQs
Are Baby Potatoes Healthy?
Potatoes are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants which are all great health benefits. Studies have even linked potatoes to some impressive health benefits like improved blood sugar control and reduced heart disease risk.
Even though potatoes are considered a starchy vegetable, they are high in fiber (when including the skin) and low in calories.
What Is The Best Way To Cook Baby Potatoes?
I love roasting them because the skin gets super crispy, it’s like a better version of a french fry!
You can also boil baby potatoes with the skin on and mash them or make smashed potatoes.
Why do my roast potatoes not go crispy?
There are a number of reasons why this happens. If there’s a lot of excess moisture on your potatoes, that can prevent them from getting as crispy as you like.
Pat them dry with paper towels to remove some of that moisture. Also make sure they’re not overcrowded while they roast—more even heat distribution leads to crispier potatoes!
Do baby potatoes taste different?
Despite what you might think, baby potatoes actually do have a slight flavor difference from their full-sized counterparts!
Because they’re harvested earlier than regular potatoes and before they reach full maturity, they have a more delicate skin and tend to be a bit sweeter.
