1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Prepare the Potatoes
Scrub the Russet potatoes under running water and dry them with a towel.
3
Pierce and Oil
Pierce each potato 4-5 times with a fork. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
4
Bake the Potatoes
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender when pierced with a fork.

5
Prepare Toppings
While the potatoes are baking, prepare your toppings by chopping green onions and cooking the bacon if needed.
6
Assemble the Jackets
Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Slice them open lengthwise, fluff the insides with a fork, and add 1 tbsp of butter to each potato.
7
Add Toppings
Top each potato with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and bacon bits as desired.

Serve the loaded jackets warm and enjoy!
