Ingredients

  • 3 Medium/Large Russet Potatoes washed well
  • 1 Tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Sour Cream
  • 4 strips Bacon cooked
  • 3 Tbsp Butter sliced thin
  • 3-4 Green Onions sliced
  • ~1.5 cups Mild or Medium Cheddar Cheese shredded and divided into 2 piles
  • 1/8 tsp Salt potato skins
  • 1 tsp Salt potatoes
  • 1/8 Black Pepper potato skins
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper potatoes
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder or granulated Garlic

Instructions

Roast the Potatoes

  • Wash the potatoes well
  • Preheat your air fryer at 400° F for 5 minutes
  • Spray air fryer basket with olive oil
  • Spray potatoes with olive oil
  • Salt, pepper, and garlic powder the potatoes and rub evenly around the potato
  • Place the potatoes into the air fryer basket
  • Air fry the potatoes at 380°F for 20 minutes
  • Flip the potatoes and air fry for another 10 minutes at 380°F
  • Chop precooked bacon into small pieces
  • Let potatoes cool for 10 minutes

Twice Baked

  • Cut one potato in half and spoon the potato meat out of the skin putting the potato meat in a large mixing bowl
  • Chop the skin small and add to the potato meat in the bowl
  • Cut the other two potatoes in half
  • Carefully use a large dinner spoon to remove the potato meat from the potato skins without damaging the potato skins (save the potato skins) and add the potato meat to the mixing bowl
  • Add all other ingredients to the potatoes in the mixing bowl (butter, sour cream, 1/2 of the cheddar cheese, green onions, bacon, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper) and mix well
  • Stuff the saved potato skins with the potato mixture evenly and place the potatoes in the air fryer basket
  • Air fry the potatoes at 400°F for 5 minutes
  • Add the reserved cheddar cheese to the top of each potato, I pinch the cheese together with my fingers on the cutting board so it stays together on the tops of the potatoes
  • Air fry the potatoes for 2 minutes at 300°F to melt the cheese without burning it
  • Let the potatoes cool for about 10 minutes and then serve them with whatever is for dinner
