Wash and scrub the potatoes
Bake at 400 degrees F for 1 hour until tender
Let cool for 1 hour
Scoop some of the potato out of its shell, reserving enough to get a good taste of potato with the skin
At this point, you can freeze the skins on a sheet pan in the freezer for later or continue to work with them
Set the air fryer to 400 degrees F to preheat
Brush the skins with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle salt
Place them face down in the air fryer and cook for five minutes until the skins are crisp
Add the cheese and bacon bits and cook three-four minutes until the cheese is melted
Sprinkle with dried chives and or chopped green onion and serve with sour cream
