Tips Tricks and FAQs
- Don’t forget to prick your potatoes with a fork. This is to prevent the potato from potentially exploding in your Ninja Foodi.
- The butter or oil on the skin is what helps that skin really crisp up. So if you like to eat the skin (like me) be sure to add this.
- Size matters. When it comes to cooking your potatoes size does matter. You want to make sure your potatoes are all similar in size. Smaller potatoes might not need as much time whereas bigger potatoes might need to cook longer.

Can I cook sweet potatoes in the Ninja Foodi Grill?
Yes, you can use your Ninja Foodi Grill to cook sweet potatoes. I would spray the outside with a little bit of cooking spray to make it crispy then place in your Air Fryer for about 30 minutes at 400 degrees. Once done, add butter with a little cinnamon and sugar for a delicious side dish or meal!

What can I top my baked potato with?
The great thing about baked potatoes is that the sky’s the limit when it comes to toppings!
Try:
- Shredded cheese
- Bacon bits
- Butter
- Onion
- Salsa
- Sour cream
- Chives
- Copycat Wendy’s chili
