Notes
Soak the toothpicks in water for a few minutes to avoid burning the toothpick while cooking in the air fryer.
You need to leave some of the flesh on the potato skin to keep its shape when wrapped in bacon.
Loosely wrap the potatoes with bacon if you don’t want too much of the potato filling oozing out.
This is also a great make-ahead recipe that can be prepared in a day or two and refrigerate. Then cook it on the day you need it.
Storing
The leftover can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in a sealed container.
