Ingredients

2 large or 4 small russet potatoes (as many as will fit in your air fryer in a single layer)
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon kosher salt
Toppings of choice: butter, (nonfat plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream), chopped fresh chives, cooked and crumbled bacon*)

Steps

1
Scrub and dry the potatoes. Rub evenly with the oil and sprinkle with salt. Pierce all over with a fork.
2
Turn the air fryer to 400°F. Add the potatoes in a single layer (do not let them touch or the skins will not crisp). Air fry the potatoes for 25 minutes. With tongs, carefully flip the potatoes over.
3
Return the potatoes to the air fryer. Continue air frying for 10 to 25 minutes more, until the potatoes pierce easily with a fork (the total time will vary based upon the size of your potatoes). Remove to a plate.
4
Once cool enough to handle, use a sharp knife to slit the potatoes lengthwise down the center and gently squeeze the sides to open. Add toppings of choice. Serve hot.
