The air fryer is a fantastic appliance for making potatoes. It cooks a potato from raw to crispy in about 12 minutes, and they are cooked better than any oven can do in twice the time.
If you haven’t tried an air fryer yet, you should read more about it here. We can’t get enough of ours. We cook almost everything in it now (even shrimp and spaghetti squash!).

Why Use an Air Fryer
An air fryer is an incredibly easy way to cook just about anything. You place the food in a fryer-style basket and hot air rapidly circulates all around the food, making the food crisp – much like deep-frying, but without the oil. You can cook anything you’d make in the oven.

What Oil & Oil Sprayer is Best for the Air Fryer?
The biggest issue most air fryer lovers face is finding the right oil and oil sprayer to use on food cooked in the air fryer. A fine mist of oil will help the entire piece of food crisp evenly, so it’s very important.
My personal preference is to use canola oil, extra virgin olive oil, or avocado oil. I use both a refillable spray bottle like the Evo one pictured below and non-propellant extra virgin olive oil, which has not harmful aerosols or chemicals.
