Ingredients

  • 4 russet potatoes each about 4 inches long
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons dry ranch salad dressing
  • 1 tablespoon butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 2 or 3 strips cooked bacon
  • 1 tablespoon sliced green onions

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 375°F.
  • Wash the potatoes well, and place them in the air fryer for about 45 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, combine the sour cream with two teaspoons of dry ranch salad dressing mix to make a dipping sauce. Stir well, cover, and refrigerate until needed.
  • When the potatoes have finished cooking, let them rest for 5 to 7 minutes before slicing them in half. Use a small scoop or spoon to scoop out the white flesh of the potato, be sure to leave about ¼ inch around all sides. (You can save the potato flesh to make potato pancakes or hash browns).
  • Brush the melted butter onto the potatoes.
  • Sprinkle seasoned salt onto the potatoes.
  • Top with the cheese and bacon.
  • Place the potato skins back into the air fryer until the cheese melts and gets bubbly.
  • Remove from the air fryer and sprinkle with the green onions.
  • Spoon the sour cream sauce over the potatoes or serve alongside for dipping.
