1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash the Russet potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a paper towel.
3
Season the Potatoes
Rub each potato with olive oil, ensuring they are completely coated. Sprinkle the salt and black pepper evenly over the potatoes.
4
Bake the Potatoes
Place the seasoned potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

5
Prepare Toppings
While the potatoes are baking, prepare the toppings. Cook bacon until crispy, then crumble it into small pieces. Slice green onions.
6
Remove Potatoes from Oven
Once the potatoes are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes until they are safe to handle.
7
Load the Potatoes
Carefully slice each potato lengthwise down the center, being careful not to cut all the way through. Fluff the insides with a fork.
8
Add Butter
Add 1 tablespoon of butter to each potato, allowing it to melt into the fluffy interior.
9
Top with Ingredients
Divide the crumbled bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and sliced green onions among the baked potatoes, loading them generously.
