- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped Green Onions
- 1/2 cup Sour Cream for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Cut the baked potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the centers, leaving a thin layer of potato near the skin.
- Brush both sides of each potato half with olive oil, then season with salt and pepper.
- Fill each skin with shredded cheese and place them in the air fryer basket.
