Method

1

Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).

2

Scrub the potatoes clean and pat them dry. Rub them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

3

Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket and cook for 30-40 minutes, or until they are easily pierced with a fork.

4

While the potatoes are cooking, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels and crumble.

5

Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice them in half lengthwise.

6

Scoop out most of the potato flesh, leaving about 1/4 inch of potato attached to the skin. Save the scooped-out potato for another use (like mashed potatoes!).

7

Brush the inside of the potato skins with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

8

Place the potato skins back in the air fryer basket and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until they are crispy.

9

Remove the potato skins from the air fryer and fill each skin with shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.

10

Return the loaded potato skins to the air fryer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

11

Top with a dollop of sour cream and chopped chives. Serve immediately and enjoy!
