Ingredients

4 large russet potatoes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup sour cream

1/4 cup cooked and crumbled bacon

1/4 cup chopped green onions

2 tablespoons butter, melted (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Scrub potatoes clean and pat dry.

Pierce each potato several times with a fork.

Rub potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Place potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 60-75 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork.

Carefully remove potatoes from the oven and let cool slightly.

Slice each potato lengthwise and fluff the insides with a fork.

Top with cheddar cheese, sour cream, bacon, and green onions.

Drizzle with melted butter, if desired. Return to oven for 2-3 minutes, until cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Final Notes

Enjoy these loaded baked potatoes as a satisfying main course or a delicious side dish. Feel free to get creative with your toppings – chili, broccoli, or pulled pork would all be fantastic additions!
