  • ½ cup black beans

Method
 

  1. Scrub the potatoes well. Poke a few holes in each with a fork, and coat them well in olive oil. season each with the salt.

Notes

    • Scrub your potatoes thoroughly to remove any dirt and ensure the skin crisps up nicely. A clean potato makes all the difference in texture.
    • Don’t skip the olive oil! It helps the skin get golden and slightly crispy in the air fryer. It also adds a subtle, savory flavor to the potato.
    • Microwave the cheese, beans and corn briefly with the potato to make sure the toppings are warm and melty. This keeps the loaded baked potato cozy and comforting, and everything can get warmed up at once.
    • Feel free to mix up the toppings to match your cravings. Swapping in different cheeses, veggies, or proteins keeps the potato bowl exciting every time.
