How to Make Scalloped Potatoes in the Air Fryer

Use a mandolin to cut 1/8″ thick potato slices.
Add the cream cheese, butter, and queso to a small sauce pan. Heat over low to medium heat while stirring to combine.
Place the baking dish into the bottom of the air fryer basket.
Layer the baking dish with a scoop of the cheese mixture, then top with potato slices. Continue with the layers, and finish off the top with the remaining cheese.
