Jacket Potatoes are a comfort food classic; just add butter, a sprinkle of salt and you can’t go wrong. Ready in just half the time compared to a conventional oven, Air Fryer Jacket Potatoes will become your new lunch staple. Serve simply with baked beans and oozing cheese for a family favourite or take it a crunch further with crumbled Mini Cheddar’s, if you like.
Ingredients
- 2 large baking potatoes (450g each), scrubbed
- 1 tsp olive or sunflower oil
- 25g butter
- 400g tin baked beans
- 100g mature cheddar cheese, grated
- 1 (23g) pack Mini Cheddar’s, crumbled (optional)
Method
Step 1
Carefully pierce the potatoes a few times with a sharp knife then rub all over with oil.
Step 2
Put the potatoes in the air fryer basket and cook for 35-40 mins at 200°C, until golden, crisp and cooked through when pierced with a knife. Turning the potatoes half way through to cook evenly.
Step 3
