Description
Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, air fryer baked potatoes are a comforting side or a versatile base for your favorite toppings.
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly, then dry them.
- Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching.
- Cook for 35-40 minutes, turning halfway through, until skin is crispy and a fork can pierce easily.
- Remove from the air fryer, let them cool for a few minutes, and serve warm.
Notes
For best results, poke holes in each potato before cooking to prevent bursting, and experiment with different oils and spices for varied flavors.
