Ingredients
- 3-4 medium russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil or non-aerosol cooking spray
- 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt (or more, to taste)
Instructions
- Scrub the potatoes under clean running water, then dry them using a kitchen towel.
- Preheat your air fryer at 200°C (392°F).
- Using a fork, poke holes on each side of the potatoes, and rub the sides with cooking oil.
- Without overcrowding, place the potatoes inside your air fryer and then generously sprinkle coarse sea salt on top of each potato.
- Air fry for 30 minutes. Flip and air fry for a further 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. (See notes on how to check whether the potatoes are done).
- Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the air fryer basket, and cut a slit on top to release the steam (this also helps keep the skin crispy). Serve your air fryer baked potatoes with sour cream and chives, butter, or your favorite toppings!

Notes
- Nutritional information is an estimate, calculated using tools that we use and will vary, depending on the products used. We recommend that you make your own calculations.
- To determine whether your air fryer baked potato is cooked, insert an internal read thermometer in the thickest part of the potato (recommended method). It should read between 205°F (96°C) and 212°F (100°C). You can also check by inserting a fork in the center of the potato. If it goes in easily with little resistance and slides out smoothly, the potato is likely cooked through and tender. The potato will also give slightly under pressure and feel soft when cooked.
