Description

Air Fryer Twice Baked Potatoes-This is one of my favorite side dishes. I mean, who wouldn’t love a potato that is filled with cheese, sour cream, and bacon bits?

Ingredients 

  • 2 large potatoes
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons bacon bits
  • 4 tablespoons cheese, shredded

Instructions

  • Start by either air frying, baking, or microwaving the potatoes. Once the potatoes are fully cooked, let them cool slightly.
  • Use a large spoon and scoop out the insides, leaving just enough of the potato skin so it doesn’t fall apart.
  • Add all the potato contents into a small mixing bowl, and add the milk, sour cream, butter, bacon bits, and shredded cheese. Mix well.
  • Stuff the potato with the potato mixture.
  • Preheat the air fryer basket for 5 minutes at 400 degrees F, air fryer setting. Cook 5-8 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Cooking Spray, optional
  • Parchment Paper, optional

Notes

  • I usually use the microwave or the air fryer to bake my potatoes. They make an excellent base for twice-baked potatoes, and the crispy potato skins can not be beaten!
  • Rub the potato with olive oil and season it with salt. Getting the potato skin crisp will give it all the more flavor. This is the secret not only to fantastic twice baked potatoes, but also air fryer baked potatoes.
  • Cook times will vary based on the potato's size and the size of your air fryer.
  • When scooping out your potatoes, leave enough potato meat to keep the potato skin firm so it does not fall apart when you stuff it.
