What are Air Fryer Hassleback Potatoes?

This is a style of cooking Yukon potatoes where you create slits along the potato creating even layers across, and then either baking or air frying. This method allows for the potato to cook quicker, as well as gives your more surface area for seasonings or toppings.

Toppings To Use

There are so many toppings you can put on these delicious potatoes, but here are a few of my favorites:

  • Sour cream and chives
  • Bacon and cheese
  • Chili
  • Taco Toppings

Instructions

  • Lay the potatoes on the cut side and place chop sticks on both sides of the potato, creating a barrier between your knife and the cutting board.
  • Cut even slits into the potato, careful not to cut all the way through. Stop once you hit the chop sticks.
