Wash the potatoes thoroughly with warm to hot water. Dry them with paper towels.
Use a sharp paring knife or fork to poke several holes into each potato.
Oil the outside of each potato.
Sprinkle the outside of each potato evenly with the salt.
Place the potatoes into the basket of your air fryer.
Cook the potatoes at 375 degrees F for 30 minutes.
Use metal tongs to flip the potatoes over.
Increase the heat. Continue to cook the potatoes at 400 degrees F for an additional 20 - 25 minutes, or until the potatoes have reached an internal range of 205 - 212 degrees F and/or they are easily pierced with a toothpick.
If your potatoes are on the small side, adjust the time accordingly. They will take less time to be fully cooked.
Top each potato with your favorite toppings: bacon, butter, sour cream, chives, broccoli, cheddar cheese, additional salt and pepper, etc.
