How to Cook Air Fryer Baked Potatoes
Let’s start preparing the Air Fryer Baked Potatoes, wash the potatoes well so that you can cook them with the skin on, and poke them with a fork.
Take a piece of aluminum foil, place the potato in the center, add a piece of butter, a drizzle of oil, and some roast seasoning. You can add your preferred seasonings, making sure they don’t already contain salt, or the potatoes will be too salty.
Close the foil and proceed in the same way with the other potatoes. Adjust the amount based on the size of the potatoes.
Place the potatoes with the foil tightly closed in the air fryer basket and cook at 356°F for 30 minutes. Before removing them from the basket, check the cooking, open a foil, and insert a fork. If it goes in without difficulty, the potatoes are cooked; otherwise, continue cooking for a few more minutes. The time varies depending on the size and type of air fryer.
Once cooked, remove the Baked Potatoes from the air fryer, open the aluminum foil, and serve the potatoes whole or sliced. You can remove the skin if preferred, but they are also excellent with the skin on.
