Notes:
Storage And Reheating Instructions:
Keep any remaining food in the fridge within a sealed container for a maximum of 3 days.
When you want to warm it up again, first set the air fryer to 380 degrees Fahrenheit. Then, let it heat for 2-3 minutes until it becomes crispy.
Pro Tips:
The potatoes for this recipe were 1.5 inches in size. If you use smaller potatoes, they will take less time to cook, while larger ones will need more time.
Choose thick-cut bacon instead of thin-cut bacon. Thin-cut bacon might cook too fast and get burnt.
I used the Instant Vortex Plus 6-quart air fryer. Remember that every air fryer is different, so you’ll need to adjust the cooking time according to your specific air fryer.
Make sure to clean and fully dry the potatoes before starting this recipe.
