Why use an air fryer for twice baked potatoes?

We chose to make this recipe using our air fryer instead of the oven because it’s easier and quicker. Many recipes that use a traditional oven call for the first bake to be at least an hour, and the second bake to be 20 to 30 minutes. So in total (not even including preheating time) the air fryer cuts out about 30 minutes of cooking .

What type of potato should I use for twice baked potatoes?

Russet potatoes are best for twice baked potatoes. Their tougher skin crisps nicely while also holding its shape well during baking, coring, and filling. Russet potatoes also give the classic baked potato and potato skin flavor that we look for in twice baked potatoes.

Can you freeze twice baked potatoes?

Yes, you can freeze twice baked potatoes either before or after the second bake. Simply freeze the potatoes in any freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Once you are ready to enjoy them, let them defrost in the fridge and then follow any of the variations of our reheating instructions found in our Expert Tips section above!
