Description
A simple and delicious recipe for perfectly baked yellow potatoes made quickly and easily in the air fryer. Crispy skin with a fluffy interior, perfect as a side dish or snack.
Ingredients
2 medium yellow potatoes (about 6 ounces each), washed and dried
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
Using a fork, prick each yellow potato several times all over to allow steam to escape during cooking.
Rub each potato evenly with olive oil, then sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper, ensuring the seasoning covers the entire surface.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch each other.
Cook the potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for 35 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping.
Check for doneness by inserting a fork or skewer into the center of the potatoes; it should slide in easily.
Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
