Crispy Air Fryer Baked Potato – Fluffy Inside, Crunchy Outside

Serve immediately for the crispiest skin.

Leftover baked potatoes can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated in the air fryer to regain crispiness.

Variations

Garlic Herb: Rub potatoes with garlic powder, rosemary, or thyme before air frying.

Cheesy Stuffed: Scoop out the center after baking, mix with cheese and herbs, then return to the skin and air fry for 3–5 minutes.

Sweet Potato Version: Use sweet potatoes, same time and temperature, for a naturally sweeter, nutrient-packed option.

FAQ

Q: Can I cook more than 4 potatoes at once?
A: Yes, but make sure they fit in a single layer without overcrowding to ensure even cooking.

Q: How do I know when they’re done?
A: Insert a fork or skewer into the thickest part—it should slide in easily without resistance.
