Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- sour cream (to taste)
- shredded cheese (to taste)
- chives (to taste)
- any favorite garnish (to taste)
Instructions
- Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
- Using a fork, prick each potato a few times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
- Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle the salt and pepper generously.
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, making sure not to overcrowd them. Set the temperature to 400°F (200°C) and cook for about 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the potatoes; if it goes in easily, they’re ready.
- Remove the baked potatoes from the air fryer, let them cool for a few minutes, then cut a slit on the top and fluff the insides with a fork.
Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or paprika to the seasoning.
- Experiment with different toppings to customize your baked potatoes.
