A simple and delicious recipe for perfectly baked yellow potatoes using an air fryer. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, these potatoes make a perfect side dish or snack.
4 medium yellow potatoes, washed and dried
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
Prick each yellow potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.
In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching for even cooking.
Cook the potatoes at 400°F (200°C) for 35 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even crisping.
Check for doneness by inserting a fork or skewer into the center of a potato; it should slide in easily.
Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
