00:00The ultimate 80s loaded potato skins.
00:02If this doesn't scream your childhood,
00:04I don't know what does.
00:05Cut your potatoes in half and scoop out 80% of the flesh.
00:09I like to leave a little potato in there around the edges.
00:12Take some melted butter, combine it with some olive oil
00:15so we get crisp and flavor.
00:17And then I'm gonna brush these on the inside and outside
00:20with this mixture and sprinkle with salt.
00:23Then into the air fryer, just fit in as many as you can.
00:26I'm going 400 because I want them to be brown and crispy.
00:29These already look so much better
00:30than what you get in a freezer section.
00:32Go ahead and top them with some cheese and bacon
00:34and then just pop them back in the air fryer
00:36for just, you know, probably take less than a minute.
00:41Reinventing and making them even better.
