Air Fryer Potato Skins

Air Fryer Potato Skins feature crisped hollowed potato shells topped with melted cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and fresh green onions. The air fryer crisps the skins evenly and melts the cheese while keeping the insides tender. These make a satisfying appetizer or snack with customizable toppings.

Description

Starting with 10 potato skins arranged in a single layer, a light spray of neutral oil enables crisping in the air fryer at 360°F for 5 minutes. The skins are then topped with cheddar cheese and bacon bits and air fried another 5 minutes until golden and gooey. Fresh green onions finish the dish, optionally paired with sour cream or salsa.

The textures balance crispy potato edges with creamy, melted cheese and smoky bacon. The use of an air fryer reduces added fat compared to frying.

This recipe is suited for casual entertaining or quick snacks. It requires little prep and cooks efficiently for a small batch.
