- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- Butter

- Cheese
- Bacon bits
Instructions
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Scrub them with a brush if necessary.
- Dry the potatoes with a clean towel.
- Using a fork, poke several holes in each potato about 6-8 times to allow steam to escape during cooking.
- In a bowl, mix together olive oil sea salt and black pepper. Brush or spray this mixture generously over the potatoes ensuring they are well-coated.
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F 200°C for about 5 minutes.
- Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket making sure they are not touching each other for even cooking. Cook for 30-35 minutes flipping halfway through for even crispiness.
- Check if they’re done by inserting a knife or fork into the thickest part of the potato it should slide in easily. If they need more time continue cooking in 5-minute increments.
