Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Fork or sharp knife

Ingredients
  

  • 2 Russet Potatoes
  • Oil
  • Kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry 2 Russet Potatoes, making sure that skin is really dry.
  • With a fork or sharp knife, pierce each potato 2 or 3 times.
  • Rub each potato with a little Oil (just enough to lightly coat) and Kosher salt generously.
  • Place potatoes in the air fryer basket. Don’t crowd the basket.
  • Air fry at 400℉ for 55-60 minutes until internal temperature reaches 208°-211°F. Air frying time can vary depending on the size of the potatoes, how many potatoes you are air frying together, and even the air fryer you use.
  • Pierce each potato with a fork 2-3 times lengthwise and crosswise. Press the potato inward at both ends and it will blossom.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings such as butter, salt, and pepper. Other options include: sour cream, chives, crumbled crispy bacon, and cheese. Enjoy!
