Moreother, the taste is much better and tastier. You can roast, fry, bake in an air fryer with a little to no oil.

There isn’t a severe verdict which one is better or healthier. Both versions are okay and great, it already depends on the time you want to spend.

You choose how to make it.

Even though many tend to say that air fryers are a less risky and oily mess, I still have to admit that baking potatoes in the oven are also one of my favourite methods. It depends on the way and the time you can afford on cooking. So keep in mind that both cooking processes are okay.
