Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and dry potatoes, then pierce each with a fork.
  • Bake potatoes directly on the oven rack for 1 hour, or until tender. Remove and let cool slightly.
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the flesh, leaving a thin shell, and place in a large bowl.
  • Add butter, sour cream, milk, and half of the cheese to the bowl. Mash until smooth and well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon the potato mixture back into the potato shells. Top with remaining cheese and crumbled bacon.
  • Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted and potatoes are heated through.
  • Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

  • Customize with your favorite toppings like chives, jalapeños, or extra cheese.
  • To make ahead, assemble and refrigerate up to one day before the second bake.
