• Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the spinach (in batches, if needed) and cook, tossing with tongs, until wilted, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, nutmeg, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Increase the heat to high and cook until the liquid evaporates, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a cutting board and finely chop; squeeze dry in a kitchen towel.
• One at a time, hold each potato with another kitchen towel and halve lengthwise. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Mash the flesh with the remaining 3 tablespoons butter until smooth; season with salt. Stir in the egg yolks and parmesan, then the spinach mixture. Brush the potato skins with melted butter; season the insides with salt and pepper. Set on a baking sheet.
• Beat the heavy cream in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Stir about one-quarter of the whipped cream into the potato mixture, then gently fold in the rest.
• Mound the filling into the potato skins. Return to the oven on the top rack and bake until the filling is warmed through and starts browning, about 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil until the filling is golden brown and the skins are crisp, 1 to 2 more minutes.

Steps:

• Rub the potatoes all over with the canola oil and season on all sides with ½ teaspoon salt.
• Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Working the batches if needed, nestle the potatoes inside of the air fryer basket and set the timer for 45 minutes. Cook, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes have crispy skin and can easily be pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile, make the spinach and artichoke dip: In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil together until the butter begins to bubble. Add the onion, garlic, remaining teaspoon of salt, the black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant. Add the artichoke hearts and spinach and cook until the spinach is well incorporated, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the cream cheese and sour cream until fully incorporated, 1-2 minutes. Add 1 cup of mozzarella and the Parmesan cheese and stir until just combined and melted, 1-2 minutes more.
• Using tongs, remove the potatoes from the air fryer and cut in half lengthwise. Use a fork to fluff the insides of the potatoes. Top each potato with a heaping ½ cup of the spinach and artichoke dip, then top each with 2 tablespoons of mozzarella cheese.
• Working in batches of 2-4 at a time, set the filled potato halves in the air fryer basket. Cook for 5 minutes, until the edges of the potato are browned and the mozzarella is melted and browning.
• Enjoy!
