Ingredients
- 3 Russet Potatoes
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 Cooking Spray Optional instead of Olive Oil
- ½ teaspoon Salt to taste
Instructions
- Thoroughly wash the potatoes under running water and dry them with a paper towel.
- Use a fork to prick each potato multiple times; this allows steam to release while they cook.
- Coat each potato with olive oil or a spray oil, then season with salt.
- Heat the air fryer to 385°F for about 3-5 minutes.
- Arrange the potatoes in the air fryer basket, spaced so they do not touch.
- Cook the potatoes at 385°F for about 60 minutes, adjusting the time based on their size.
- Turn the potatoes over halfway through the cooking time to cook evenly.
- Test the potatoes for doneness by piercing them with a fork; they should be soft.
- Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and let them sit for a few minutes before cutting them open.
Notes
To reheat baked potatoes in the air fryer, start by preheating the air fryer to 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes. Place the baked potatoes in the air fryer basket, making sure they are not overcrowded. Reheat them at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through for even heating. If needed, reheat for an additional 2-3 minutes until they are hot. Enjoy your perfectly reheated baked potatoes!
