Equipment

  • Air-fryer

  • Brush
  • Tongs

Ingredients
  

  • 2-4 russet potatoes
  • 1-2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Optional toppings: butter sour cream, chives, cheese, bacon bits

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F.
  • Scrub the potatoes clean and pat them dry.
  • Use a fork to pierce the potatoes several times.
  • Brush the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
  • Air fry for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through.
  • Check for doneness by poking with a fork; they should be tender inside.

Notes

  • Cooking times may vary based on the size of your potatoes and the model of your air fryer.
  • For extra crispiness, give the potatoes another light brush of olive oil halfway through cooking.
  • Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the air fryer for best results.
