NOTES
Use sweet potatoes or Yukon Gold- If you want to change up this potato bake, you can make air fryer potatoes using sweet potatoes or Yukon Gold.
Add toppings – If you have leftover ham, that can be a great addition to the first layer of potatoes. You can also add sour cream and even chop up thick slices of bacon and sprinkle them on top, too.
