The Ultimate Twice Baked Potatoes
These potatoes are not only tasty but also quite filling. They’re perfect for any occasion, and the best part is, you can customize the filling to suit your taste! Here’s how we make them:
Ingredients:
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 4 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Butter for greasing
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and poke a few holes in them with a fork to allow steam to escape.
- Wrap the potatoes in aluminum foil and place them directly on the oven rack. Bake for about 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the insides into a mixing bowl, leaving a thin layer of potato on the skin.
- Add the sour cream, cheddar cheese, milk, green onions, crumbled bacon, salt, and pepper to the potato flesh. Mix until well combined and creamy.
- Stuff the potato skins with the mixture, mounding it slightly on top. You can sprinkle extra cheese on top if you like for added flavor.
- Place the stuffed potatoes back in the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and slightly golden on top.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
