Crispy & Fluffy: How to Bake a Perfect Baked Potato in Air Fryer

Let's be honest, a baked potato is a classic. But waiting 45 minutes in the oven? Not always ideal. Enter the air fryer! It's a game-changer for getting perfectly cooked potatoes in a fraction of the time. This simple guide will show you exactly how to bake a baked potato in air fryer that's crispy on the outside and fluffy inside.

What You’ll Need:

* Russet potatoes (or your favorite variety)

* Olive oil (or any cooking oil)

* Salt & pepper

Instructions:

1. Prep the Potato: Wash the potato thoroughly. Pat it dry. This is important for crispy skin!

2. Oil & Season: Lightly coat the potato with oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Don't skimp on the salt - it really brings out the flavor.

3. Air Fry: Place the potato directly into the air fryer basket. No need for parchment paper! Cook at 400°F (200°C) for 35-45 minutes, flipping halfway through. Cooking time will depend on the size of your potato.

Why Air Fry?

The air fryer circulates hot air, resulting in a super crispy skin. Plus, it's faster than oven baking! While you’ve got the air fryer going, why not try some other easy favorites? Air fryer pork chops are a quick dinner option, and bacon in air fryer yields perfectly crispy strips. We often make air fryer potatoes, chicken thighs in air fryer, or even salmon in air fryer alongside our baked potatoes.

Beyond the Basics:

Once your baked potato in air fryer is cooked, load it up with your favorite toppings - butter, sour cream, cheese, chives… the possibilities are endless! If you're looking for some healthy side options, air fryer brussel sprouts are surprisingly delicious and easy too. Don't forget about chicken breast in air fryer for another quick and easy meal.

Enjoy your perfectly cooked baked potato in air fryer! You might even want to grab a Gourmia air fryer if you don't have one already – they work wonders!
