Place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of the AirFryer basket.
Scrub the potatoes clean and slice them into 1/2 inch thick wedges.
Whisk the eggs in a shallow dish (I used a pie plate). Combine the flour in a second dish then combine the cheese and seasonings in a third dish.
Toss the potato wedges around in the flour then transfer them to the egg mixture and coat them completely with the egg.
Transfer them to the cheese mixture and press the cheese onto the potato wedges.
Place 8 to 10 wedges in the AirFryer basket in a single layer (you will need to work in batches). Close the basket and cook for 12-14 minutes at 400°F. When they finish cooking set them on a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the potato wedges.

Slice the wedges 1/2 inch thick for best results. If you slice them thicker then they will need to cook longer and you will have to turn them halfway through the cooking time.
Coat the potato wedges in the flour first. The flour will help more of the egg stick to the potato which will give them a better crust.
Use parchment paper in the basket to prevent the cheese from sticking. The parchment paper works so much better than non-stick spray.
Do not crowd the potato wedges in the AirFryer basket. If you have a smaller AirFryer you will need to cook fewer potato wedges at a time.
If you substitute a different cheese for the parmesan use a hard cheese like Pecorino Romano or Manchego. Do not use a soft melting cheese.
