Loaded Baked Potato Ingredients

Method

Loaded Baked Potato Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Scrub the russet potatoes under running water and dry them with a towel.

  2. 2

    Season the Potatoes

    Prick each potato several times with a fork. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bake the Potatoes

    Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the potatoes bake, prepare your toppings by cooking bacon until crispy, shredding cheese, and chopping green onions.

  5. 5

    Load the Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Cut a slit down the center of each potato and gently squeeze the ends to open them up.

  6. 6

    Add Toppings

    Add butter, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and bacon bits to the opened potatoes.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve warm, and enjoy your loaded baked potatoes!
