Ingredients

Preparation Method


Start by preheating your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. While the oven is heating up, wash and dry the potatoes. Then, brush them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. This will give you a crispy, flavorful skin.

Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and put them in the oven. Bake for about an hour, or until the potatoes are cooked through and the skins are crispy.

While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble it. Slice the green onions thinly, keeping some aside for garnish.

Once the potatoes are done, let them cool slightly. Then, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scoop out the inside of the potatoes, leaving about a quarter inch of potato in the skin. This will help the skins hold their shape.

In a bowl, mash the scooped-out potato. Add the shredded cheddar, sour cream, milk, crumbled bacon, and sliced green onions. Mix well until everything is combined.

Spoon this mixture back into the potato skins. Top with a little extra cheese, and put them back in the oven. Bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve your Bacon Cheddar Twice-Baked Potatoes with a sprinkle of green onions on top.
