Main Ingredients

  • 4 medium Russet Potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt or to taste
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper or to taste

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  • Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • Pierce each potato several times with a fork. This allows steam to escape during cooking.
  • Rub the potatoes with olive oil, then season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook in batches.
  • Air fry for 35-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until the skin is crispy and the inside is tender. Cooking time may vary depending on your air fryer and the size of the potatoes.
  • Carefully remove the potatoes from the air fryer. Slice them open and fluff the insides with a fork. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Enjoy your perfectly cooked air fryer baked potatoes! Great as a side for steak, chicken, or as a base for loaded baked potato toppings.
