Test Kitchen Tip: To add browned crumb topping without using an Air Fry Lid, sprinkle the remaining Cheddar cheese on top of the potatoes. Heat broiler on HIGH. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. In a medium bowl, combine breadcrumbs and butter. Spread crumb mixture in an even layer over foil on baking sheet. Place under broiler 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally until breadcrumbs are golden brown. Sprinkle over scalloped potatoes and serve immediately.
