Ultimate Air Fryer Baked Potatoes
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prep the Potatoes
- Scrub potatoes under running water and pat dry thoroughly—dry skin crisps better.
- Use a fork to poke several holes in each potato to release steam.
- Rub each potato with oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
2️⃣ Air Fry to Perfection
- Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 3–5 minutes (if needed).
- Place potatoes in the basket in a single layer, leaving space between them.
- Cook for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until skins are crisp and insides are tender. Time may vary based on potato size.
3️⃣ Check for Doneness
- Insert a fork or skewer into the center—it should glide in easily.
- If needed, cook in 5-minute increments until fully tender.
4️⃣ Serve & Customize
- Let potatoes cool slightly, then slice open and fluff with a fork.
- Add your favorite toppings and dig in!
🧠 Tips for Potato Success
- Pick Similar Sizes: Uniform potatoes cook evenly.
- Don’t Skip the Oil: It’s key to that golden, crispy skin.
- Flip Midway: Ensures even crisping on all sides.
- Save & Reheat: Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer or oven to bring back the crunch.
