Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:40 minutes

Ingredients

For the Potatoes:

  • 4 medium russet potatoes scrubbed and dried
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

For the Toppings:

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 6 strips bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 3 green onions thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prep the potatoes – Pat your scrubbed potatoes completely dry (this is key for crispy skin!). Pierce each potato 8–10 times all over with a fork.
  • Season them up – Rub each potato with olive oil, then sprinkle generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Air fry – Place potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 35–40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until a fork slides in easily.
  • Load them up – Slice each potato open and fluff the insides with a fork. Add a pat of butter first, then pile on the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, sour cream, and green onions.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy every single loaded bite!
