Answer
One day. Ibn Nujaym: *وأما الفطر فليس له إلا يوم واحد، بخلاف الأضحى فإن له أيامًا* — "As for Fitr, it has only one day, unlike Adha, which has multiple days." Al-Kasani: *وأما وقت صلاة عيد الفطر فيختص بيوم واحد، وهو اليوم الأول من شوال* — "As for the time of the Eid al-Fitr prayer, it is specific to one day, and that is the first day of Shawwal."
