Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease two large rimmed baking sheets with a thin coat of oil; set aside.
Scrub the potatoes clean, and then slice each potato into eighths lengthwise (you don’t need to peel the potatoes).
Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Add melted butter and toss to coat.
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, parsley flakes, garlic powder, and pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss to coat.
Arrange the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for about 45 minutes, turning once halfway through. The wedges are done when they’re tender on the inside and crispy and golden brown on the outside.
Season the warm potatoes with additional salt, to taste. Garnish with fresh chopped herbs, if desired.

I use a good ole' can of grated Parmesan cheese. There's no need to mess with the fancier freshly-grated Parmesan. The powder-like texture of the canned version is perfect for this recipe!
Get creative and adjust the spices. You can season the potato wedges with bbq rub, onion powder, paprika, or our favorite all-purpose seasoning. Make them spicy with a little bit of cayenne!
Air Fryer Potato Wedges: If you want to use the air fryer to cook the potato wedges (instead of the oven), you will likely need to cook them in batches. You don't want to overcrowd the basket in the air fryer, so make sure that the potatoes are spread out and have plenty of room in each batch. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Cook the potato wedges for 10 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes (or until the potatoes are nicely browned on the outside and tender on the inside).
