Can you bake a potato in an air fryer? Absolutely! And honestly, it's a game-changer. Forget preheating the oven for ages; the air fryer delivers perfectly fluffy baked potatoes in a fraction of the time. Plus, the skin gets delightfully crispy!
Here's the gist: Wash and dry your potatoes. Prick them several times with a fork. Rub them with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper (or your favorite seasoning). Place them directly in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F (200°C) for about 40-50 minutes, flipping halfway through. Cooking time depends on the size of your potatoes, so check for doneness with a fork – it should slide in easily.
The result? A steaming hot, fluffy-on-the-inside, crispy-on-the-outside baked potato ready for all your favorite toppings. Ditch the oven and embrace the air fryer for your next potato craving!
