Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Bake the potatoes using my air fryer baked potatoes recipe or your favorite cooking method, then set aside until cool enough to handle.
- Step 2
Halve each baked potato, and using the tip of a spoon, gently remove the flesh, leaving about 1/4" border. Be very careful not to tear the potato skin.
- Step 3
Brush the inside of the potatoes with oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Place (4) potato skins in the air fryer and cook at 400 degrees for 5 minutes, then remove and repeat with the remaining (4) potato skins.
- Step 4
Fill each potato skin with about 2 tablespoons of cheddar cheese (use more if your potatoes are larger), then place (4) in the air fryer and cook at 350 degrees for 3 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Remove and repeat with the remaining (4) potato skins.
- Step 5
Top the potato skins with crumbled bacon, green onions, sour cream, then serve immediately. Enjoy!
