Air Fryer Baked Potato

These Air Fryer Baked Potatoes are coated lightly in olive oil and salt, then cooked at high heat until tender inside with a slightly crisp skin. The method uses an air fryer for a convenient way to bake potatoes without heating a full oven, yielding a fluffy interior ready for toppings like butter, chives, bacon, and sour cream. This preparation is practical for quick meals or side dishes.

Instructions

  1. Lightly coat your potatoes (after washing and patting dry) with some oil and sprinkle some salt on. Prick them 3-4 times across the surface with a fork.
  2. Place the potatoes into your airfryer, making sure there’s space to allow the hot air to circulate between them.
  3. Turn your airfryer on and set it to 400F for 25 minutes. No preheating is necessary!
  4. After 25 minutes, open your airfryer and give the potatoes a gentle squeeze on the side to see if they’re done. They should be squish-able! If they’re still hard, let them cook for another 5-10 minutes.
  5. Once done, split them open and put your choice of toppings on them! I had a mix of butter, chives, bacon, and sour cream.
