Storage And Reheating Instructions:

Store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
To reheat, preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees Fahrenheit and heat for 1-3 minutes until hot.

Pro Tips:

The air fryer I used was the Instant Vortex Plus 6 quart. Since all air fryers are different, you will need to adjust the cook time based on the air fryer you are using.
If you have an air fryer that tends to blow cheese and toppings off, just use the residual heat leftover from cooking the potatoes to melt the cheese. Your air fryer will still be warm and the fan will be off.
Save time by using store bought bacon crumbles.
