Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 baking potatoes, washed
3 tablespoons canola oil
2 sticks salted butter
1 cup bacon bits (fry your own!)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup Cheddar or Jack cheese (or a mix of both), plus more for topping
1 cup whole milk
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3 green onions, sliced
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the potatoes on a baking sheet. Rub them with the canola oil and bake for 1 hour, making sure they're sufficiently cooked through.
  • Slice the butter into pats. Place in a large mixing bowl and add the bacon bits and sour cream. Remove the potatoes from the oven. Lower the heat to 350 degrees F.
  • With a sharp knife, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Scrape out the insides into the mixing bowl, being careful not to tear the shell. Leave a small rim of potato intact for support. Lay the hollowed out potato shells on a baking sheet.
  • Smash the potatoes into the butter, bacon and sour cream. Add the cheese, milk, seasoned salt, green onions and black pepper to taste and mix together well. (IMPORTANT: If you plan to freeze the twice-baked potatoes, do NOT add the green onions.)
  • Fill the potato shells with the filling. I like to fill the shells so they look abundant and heaping. Top each potato with a little more grated cheese and pop 'em in the oven until the potato is warmed through, 15 to 20 minutes.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES



Twice-Baked Potatoes image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 russet potatoes (about 4 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 1/2 cups milk
3 cups grated extra-sharp Cheddar cheese (12 ounces)
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup finely chopped scallions (from 4 to 5 scallions), plus more for garnish
Kosher salt and finely ground black pepper
5 slices cooked bacon, roughly chopped (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Poke the potatoes all over with a fork. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and then drizzle with the oil, turning them over to coat completely. Bake until the potatoes offer no resistance when pierced with a paring knife, about 1 hour. Let cool completely (leave the oven on).
  • Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, being careful not to break the skins (it's better to leave a little flesh in the skin than to risk breaking it). Rice the potato flesh into a large bowl and set aside.
  • Stir the milk into the potato flesh along with 2 cups of the Cheddar, and the sour cream, scallions, 1 tablespoon salt, and pepper to taste. Place the potato skins on a baking sheet and divide the potato mixture evenly among them. Top the potatoes with the chopped bacon and the remaining 1 cup Cheddar. Bake until the cheese is melted, the potatoes are completely heated through and the tops are just beginning to brown slightly, 20 minutes more. Garnish with scallions and serve immediately.
