Stuffed Potato Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Bake the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pierce each potato several times with a fork. Place them on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender and cooked through.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    Once the potatoes are baked, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides into a mixing bowl, leaving a thin layer of potato on the skin.

  3. 3

    Mix Ingredients

    To the bowl with the scooped potato, add butter, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, salt, black pepper, and crumbled bacon. Mix until well combined and creamy.

  4. 4

    Stuff the Potatoes

    Spoon the potato mixture back into the potato skins, mounding it slightly on top. Sprinkle paprika over the stuffed potatoes for flavor and color.

  5. 5

    Final Bake

    Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and bubbly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a hearty and delicious side dish or main course.
