Learn how to make an air fryer baked potato with flavorful, crispy skin and fluffy insides! Enjoy it with toppings like chives, sour cream, and/or butter.

Ingredients
- 2 medium russet potatoes (scrubbed and dried, pricked with a fork)
- to taste extra-virgin olive oil (for rubbing on potatoes)
- to taste sea salt (for seasoning potatoes)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F.
- Use a fork to poke a few holes in the potatoes. Place on a plate. Rub with olive oil and sprinkle liberally with sea salt all over.
- Transfer to the air fryer basket and air fry for 40 to 60 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the skin is crisp.
- Slice open each potato, fluff the insides, and serve with desired toppings.
Notes
- Piercing the potatoes allows steam to escape, preventing them from bursting in the air fryer.
- Do not wrap potatoes in foil; it makes the skin soggy.
