Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Bake the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and poke holes in the potatoes with a fork. Bake them for about 45-60 minutes until they are tender.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble it. Chop the green onions and set aside.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Loaded Potatoes

    Once the potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Cut a slit in the top of each potato and gently squeeze the ends to open them up.

  4. 4

    Add the Filling

    Add a tablespoon of butter into each potato, followed by a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Then, fill each potato with cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, a dollop of sour cream, and top with green onions.

  5. 5

    Melt the Cheese

    Return the loaded potatoes to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before serving warm.
