Instructions

  1. Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees. Poke a few holes in each potato with a fork.
  2. Transfer potatoes to preheated air fryer and bake until tender when pierced with a small knife, about 40 minutes, turning potatoes after 20 minutes to ensure even cooking. Cool.
  3. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel the potatoes. Add to a sturdy pot or large bowl and mash to a uniform consistency.  Using a rubber spatula, fold in melted butter until just incorporated.
  4. Slowly stir in 1/2 cup hot milk. Add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, to adjust the consistency as desired. Season to taste with salt and pepper and garnish with fresh chives if desired.

Notes

  • Potatoes: Technically, you can air fry any potato. But for the ultimate air fryer baked potato, choose a russet which has a higher starch content and makes a fluffier potato. Russets are my favorite potato for mashed spuds, too.
  • Yield: This recipe makes about 5 cups mashed potatoes, enough for 4 servings, 1 heaping cup each.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
