Loaded Air Fryer Whole30 Potato Skins

Potato skins are the perfect party food: crispy, savory, and easy to eat with your hands. But traditional potato skins are often loaded with unhealthy ingredients like butter, cheese, and sour cream, so they're not exactly Whole30-friendly.

This recipe for Loaded Air Fryer Whole30 Potato Skins is a healthier take on the classic appetizer. It uses all Whole30-compliant ingredients, so you can enjoy them without guilt. The potato skins are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and they're loaded with your favorite Whole30 toppings. They're the perfect way to satisfy your cravings for something crunchy and savory.

Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 15 | Serves: 4

Ingredients

• Russet potatoes
• Olive oil
• Salt and pepper
• Your favorite Whole30 toppings (we like bacon, cheese, and chives)

Instructions

1. Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. Scrub the potatoes clean and cut them in half lengthwise.
3. Use a spoon to scoop out the insides of the potatoes, leaving a 1/4-inch thick shell.
4. Toss the potato shells with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
5. Place the potato shells in the air fryer basket and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
6. Remove the potato skins from the air fryer and top with your favorite Whole30 toppings.

Why It Works

• Air frying the potato skins instead of baking or frying them reduces the amount of oil needed, making them healthier.
• The potato skins are cooked until they are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, so they have the perfect texture.
• Loading the potato skins with your favorite Whole30 toppings makes them a customizable and satisfying snack or appetizer.
