Notes

Cooking time will vary depending on the size of your potatoes and your air fryer model. Medium potatoes usually take 35–40 minutes at 390°F. Larger potatoes may need extra time. The potatoes are done when a fork or knife slides easily into the center.
  • Choose potatoes that are similar in size so they cook evenly.
  • Poke a few holes in each potato with a fork before cooking.
  • Flip the potatoes one time during cooking for more even crisping.
  • Do not wrap the potatoes in foil if you want crispy skin.
  • Always check toppings to keep this recipe gluten-free.
