Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 4 strips bacon
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp salted butter softened
  • pinch kosher sea salt
  • pinch black pepper
  • 2 tbsp green onions sliced

Instructions
 

  • Poke potatoes with a paring knife in a few spots. Spritz outside of potatoes with olive oil spray and a sprinkle of coarse sea salt. Place potatoes in air fryer and air fry at 400°F for 20 minutes. 
    3-4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
  • Open air fryer and place bacon strips, cut in half, into air fryer with potatoes. Close and air fry 8 minutes more. 
    4 strips bacon
  • Open air fryer and check potato for doneness—a paring knife should slide in easily. Remove potato and bacon from air fryer and let cool 5 minutes. If potato is not done, air fry 3–5 minutes more. Dice bacon and set aside. 
  • Slice cooled potato in half and scoop out 80 percent of flesh. Be sure to leave a thin layer of flesh around potato skins. Add scooped potato flesh to a medium bowl. 
  • In bowl with potatoes, add sour cream, butter, salt & pepper. Mash with a fork until combined. Fold in 1/3 cup cheese and half of diced bacon. 
    1/4 cup sour cream, 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, 2 tbsp salted butter, pinch kosher sea salt, pinch black pepper
  • Spoon potato mixture into potato skins and top with remaining Cheddar. 
  • Using tongs, return potatoes to air fryer and air fry at 370°F for 5 minutes, until cheese is melted. 
  • Remove potatoes from air fryer and top with sour cream, bacon and green onions. 
    2 tbsp green onions
