Ingredients
4
medium russet potatoes
2
tablespoons
olive oil
1
teaspoon
salt
½
teaspoon
black pepper
½
teaspoon
garlic powder
Optional toppings: cheese
sour cream, chives, bacon, etc.
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the potatoes thoroughly.
Pierce each potato 3-4 times with a fork.
Combine the olive oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder in a small bowl.
Coat the potatoes evenly with the olive oil mixture.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not touching.
Cook for about 45 minutes, turning halfway through.
Check for doneness by piercing with a fork; the inside should be soft.
Allow to rest for 5 minutes, then slice open, fluff the insides with a fork, and add your favorite toppings.
Notes
Choose Evenly Sized Potatoes
: This ensures that they cook at the same rate.
Pierce the Potatoes
: Pricking them with a fork prevents bursting.
Pat Dry
: Ensure the potatoes are dry before oiling to help them crisp up.
Rotate
: Turn the potatoes halfway through cooking to ensure even crisping.
Check Doneness
: Use a fork to check if the inside is soft and fully cooked.
