Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside—these air fryer baked potatoes are a fast, no-fuss side dish made with just oil and potatoes.

Ingredients

4 small baking potatoes (such as russet)

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Prep Potatoes:
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat dry with a paper towel.

Add Oil:
Brush each potato with olive oil, coating all sides.

Air Fry:
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Set the air fryer to 400°F and cook for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through if desired.
Check doneness by inserting a knife—potatoes should be soft inside.

Serve:
Slice open and top with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, butter, chives, cheese, or bacon bits.

Notes

Cooking time may vary slightly depending on potato size and your air fryer model.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer or microwave.

For extra crisp skin, sprinkle sea salt on oiled potatoes before air frying.

Great base for loaded baked potatoes or a meal prep staple.
