Ingredients
  

  • 2 potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • Salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Use a fork to poke holes into clean, dry potatoes.
  • Massage the potatoes with oil and sprinkle some salt. Pop them in an Air Fryer preheated at 400 degrees for 40 minutes.
  • Remove and let them cool slightly. Make a + in the middle using a sharp knife.
  • Open up the potato a bit and sprinkle the seasonings and toppings of your choice.

Notes

  • The cooking time will depend on the size of your potatoes. If your potatoes are larger, air fry them for a few extra minutes.
  • If you're making these for a crowd, don't overcrowd the basket with too many potatoes. 4-5 potatoes at a time should be just fine, and make sure they're all roughly the same size.
  • Add the toppings right when you serve. Better yet- set up a toppings bar so everyone can get to pick what they like!
