Ingredients
Scale
- 3 russet potatoes (approximately 300 grams each)
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Air Fryer
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (204°C) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Step 2: Prep the Potatoes
- Wash and dry the russet potatoes thoroughly.
- Rub each potato with canola oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 3: Air Fry the Potatoes
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded for even cooking.
- Cook for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through. Adjust the cooking time based on the size of your potatoes.
Step 4: Check Doneness
- Test the potatoes by inserting a knife into the center. If it slides in easily, the potatoes are done. If needed, cook for an additional 5-10 minutes.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
- Serve the baked potatoes hot with your favorite toppings like butter, sour cream, chives, or shredded cheese.
Notes
- Potato Size Matters: Adjust cooking time for larger or smaller potatoes.
- Oil Options: Use olive oil, avocado oil, or vegetable oil if preferred.
- Toppings: Try chili, bacon bits, or a dollop of Greek yogurt for variety.
- Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer for crispy skin.
