Air Fryer Baked Potatoes
Description
The recipe prepares medium russet potatoes by cleaning and drying, then pricking the skin with a fork to prevent bursting. The potatoes are rubbed generously with olive oil and seasoned with kosher salt. Air frying at 390°F cooks the potatoes without preheating, first for 25 minutes, then turning them and cooking an additional 20 to 30 minutes until tender. The skin becomes crisp while the interior steams to softness.
This approach is straightforward, requiring minimal hands-on time and avoiding conventional oven cooking. The potatoes can be topped further after cooking per preference, making them flexible for various meals.
You can adjust quantity depending on air fryer capacity, and for extra flavor, bacon grease can replace oil for the rub.
