Air Fryer Baked Potatoes

Air Fryer Baked Potatoes

I love love Air Fryer Baked Potatoes! They are so easy, nutritious, and versatile.

What is an air fryer?
An air fryer is a miniature convection oven. It is a countertop cooking appliance that combines a heating element and a powerful fan to circulate hot air around your food so that it cooks more evenly and efficiently than in a normal oven. Air fryers produce foods that are crispy outside and moist and tender inside.
