Vegetarian Air Fryer Baked Potato

Crispy on the outside and fluffy all the way through, this air fryer baked potato skips the oven entirely and still delivers that deep-golden, craggy skin in under an hour. A simple rub of olive oil, kosher salt, and black pepper before cooking is all it takes to get that seasoned, crackly exterior, while the inside steams into a soft, pillowy center that's ready for loading up. Once it's done, just slit it open, fluff the flesh with a fork, and pile on butter, sour cream, shredded cheddar, and a scatter of fresh chives for the classic loaded-potato experience. It's an easy, satisfying side or light meal that fits naturally into a vegetarian kitchen, no extra planning required. Whether you're making one potato for a quick lunch or four for a weeknight dinner lineup, this method turns out consistently crisp results every time.
