Method
Cooking Instructions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Bake the Potatoes
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the skin is crispy.
Serve
Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Cut a slit down the center of each potato and fluff the insides with a fork. Add butter, sour cream, chopped chives, and shredded cheddar cheese as desired.
