Craving a perfectly baked potato but short on time? Look no further than your air fryer! Learning how to bake a potato in the air fryer is a game-changer. You get that crispy, flavorful skin we all love, with a perfectly fluffy interior, in a fraction of the time.
Simply scrub your potatoes, prick them a few times with a fork (don't skip this!), and rub them with a little olive oil and your favorite seasonings like salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Pop them into your air fryer basket at 400°F (200°C) for about 40-50 minutes, flipping halfway through. The exact time will depend on the size of your potatoes, so test for doneness by piercing with a fork – it should slide in easily.
Once they're ready, slice them open, fluff the insides with a fork, and load them up with your favorite toppings! Sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, chili – the possibilities are endless! Enjoy your effortless and delicious air fryer baked potato!
