Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).

Place the baby potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Place the potatoes on the baking sheet and use a fork to gently smash each potato until flattened but still intact.

Drizzle olive oil over the smashed potatoes and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.

Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
