Air Fryer Potato Skins
Air Fryer Potato Skins are crispy twice-cooked potato halves hollowed out and filled with sharp cheddar and pepper jack cheeses, savory bacon, and creamy sour cream. This dish delivers a rich savory flavor with contrasting textures of crispy skin and melted cheeses. Using an air fryer results in a crispier texture with less oil compared to deep frying.
