Step 1

Wash the sweet potatoes and dry well. Poke a few holes with fork or knife in potatoes. Spray sweet potatoes with a light coat of oil (salt if desired) and place in air fryer set to 380 F for 40 minutes (or in preheated oven 400 F for 1 hour). If your sweet potato is on the smaller side, reduce time by 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Step 2

Prepare bacon while sweet potatoes are cooling if it's not already prepared. Chop and set aside.

Step 3

Once potatoes are cool enough to handle, slice off the top of the potato. Scoop pulp out of potato into a bowl, being careful not to rip through the skin with spoon.

Step 4

Into the pulp, stir butter, sour cream, salt, pepper, crumbled bacon and cheese. Spoon mixture back into the potato skins.

Step 5

Place back in air fryer at 380 F for 4 minutes or back in the oven at 400 F for 10 minutes.

Step 6

Top with chopped green onions and serve.
