Rinse and dry the potatoes. Then peel the potatoes and place the skins in a bowl.

Spray the potato skins with some olive oil. This step is optional, but the light coating of oil helps to get them crispier and makes them taste a little better.

Add a bit of salt. Mix with your hands and add a bit more oil and salt as necessary to get the skins evenly coated.

Add the potato skins to the air fryer basket. Cook at 385F/195C for 8 to 10 minutes. At the 5-minute mark remove the basket spray again with olive oil and add a bit more salt. Turn the skins over and cook the remaining time until they are golden brown and crispy.

Add additional seasonings as desired.
