Air Fryer Baked Potato
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.
Ingredients
- 3 potato baking variety
- 1/2 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 Tablespoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Wash and dry the potatoes.
- Put the oil in a bowl and rub it on the potatoes.
- Spinkle salt over the potatoes.
- Put the potatoes in an air fryer basket, leaving space around them for air to circulate.
- Cook at 400 F for 30 minutes, turning over after 15 minutes.
- Test for the potatoes doneness by seeing if a fork goes into them easily. Or check the temperature with an instant read thermometer. They are done if they are at about 205 F.
- Put them back in for another 10 minutes if necessary.
