Air Fryer Baked Potato

This recipe guides how to make crispy-skinned baked potatoes using an air fryer. Potatoes are rubbed with olive oil and kosher salt, then air fried at 400°F until tender inside and crisp outside. The method produces classic baked potatoes with less time and heat than an oven.

Description

The Air Fryer Baked Potato recipe begins by washing and drying baking potatoes, then coating them thoroughly with olive oil and salt to promote a crisp, flavorful skin. The potatoes are spaced in the air fryer basket for even heat circulation and cooked at 400°F, turning halfway through, for approximately 30 minutes. Doneness is tested by inserting a fork easily or checking for an internal temperature around 205°F.

Potatoes can be cooked an additional 10 minutes if needed to reach the desired tenderness. The air fryer method reduces cooking time compared to traditional oven baking and yields a crispy exterior with a soft interior. This approach suits baking potatoes quickly without heating the whole kitchen.
