how long air fry baked potatoes
The cooking time for air fryer baked potatoes varies depending on the size of the potato. Here’s a general guide:
- Small to Medium Potatoes (approx. 4-6 oz): 25-35 minutes
- Large Potatoes (approx. 8-10 oz): 35-45 minutes
Important considerations:
- Temperature: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Pre-heating: It usually isn’t necessary to preheat.
- Check for Doneness: Poke the potatoes with a fork or knife to check for tenderness. If the fork glides through easily, they’re done. If there’s resistance, cook for a few more minutes.
- Flipping: Flip the potatoes halfway through cooking for even cooking.
- Crispy Skin: For extra crispy skin, spray the potatoes with cooking oil or rub with olive oil before cooking.
- Seasoning: Season with salt, pepper, or any other desired seasonings.
To improve crispiness:
- Rub with oil: A light coating of oil helps crisp up the skin.
- Pierce the skin: This allows steam to escape and helps the potatoes cook through properly.
