Servings: 8
Equipment
- 1 air fryer
Ingredients
- 4 potatoes
- 6 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp sea salt
- 1 1/4 c cheese shredded
- 1 c sour cream
- 1/2 c bacon bits precooked
Instructions
- Rub outsides of cleaned and dried potatoes liberally with olive oil, sprinkle with salt all over and place inside air fryer basket.
- Cook at 400 degrees F for 40 minutes total, flip them over after 20 minutes. Test with a knife at the end to feel if they are tender all the way into the very center of each.
- Remove baked potatoes, allow to cool enough to handle them but still warm.
- Slice each potato in half lengthwise. Hold one half in your hands and use a tbsp to scoop out tender insides. Keep a bit of insides in tact with skins so they don't fall apart. Put insides into a bowl.
- Once all middles are scooped out add 3/4 c cheese, 1/2 c sour cream and 1/4 c bacon bits. Stir so this is well combined.
- Lay potato skins on cutting board. Scoop potato cheese filling back into empty skins to fill them up again.
- 4 at a time place filled potato skins into air fryer basket again. Top with cheese and more bacon bits if desired.
- Cook at 300 degrees F for 3-4 minutes or just until cheese melts. Remove, top with more sour cream and enjoy!
