Pierce each potato a few times with a fork. This allows the steam to escape so that potatoes don't explode. Then put the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook them in the air fryer at 400°F for 40 minutes. You can also bake the potatoes in the microwave if you are short on time.
When the potatoes are done cooking, remove them from the air fryer. Then cut them in half and scoop the insides out into a large bowl leaving the skins intact.
Add the butter, sour cream, bacon bits, and cheese along with some salt and pepper to taste to the potato flesh in the bowl. Now, using a fork mash the potato flesh together with the other ingredients until well combined.
Divide the potato mixture into 4 even portions and then spoon it back into the empty potato skin shells.
Put the stuffed potatoes into the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook them in the air fryer at 400°F for 8 minutes.
When done, remove the twice baked potatoes from the air fryer and serve immediately.
