Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes (7-9 oz)
- ½ tsp sea salt or to taste
- 1 Tbsp olive oil or use a cooking spray
Instructions
Preparation
- Scrub potatoes under running water then thoroughly dry with a towel.
- Poke the potato all over with a fork, 4-5 times.
- Rub with oil and sprinkle all over with salt.
Cooking
- Add the potatoes to the air fryer basket.
- Cook the potatoes at 400°F for basket-style air fryers or 375°F for toaster-style air fryers for 35-45 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Air fry until easily pierced with a knife, then use tongs to transfer potatoes to a plate.
Notes
Choose potatoes that are similar in size for even cooking. Don't skip poking holes in the potatoes to prevent bursting. Adjust cooking time based on potato size.
