Traci's Twice baked potatoes recipe




yummy twice baked potatoes, bacon and green onion twice baked potato recipe,


Credit for these scrumptious twice baked potatoes with bacon and chives recipe goes to my oldest daughter who has started enjoying cooking. Or maybe she just loves using my wonderful new cutting board a friend made for me. In any case we got to enjoy these beauties last night.  These twice baked potatoes are so good I ate 3, and this recipe is a keeper, and I'm perfectly ok with keeping traci cooking them next time too. She did an amazing job.

They outside skins had the perfect crunch to them, and the inside was cheesy and buttery and it had just the right amount of garlic goodness going on. The bacon and green onion brought it all together perfectly. I would eat these potatoes every night if I thought she would cook them for me every night.

I also think this recipe could be tweaked and used next time we make mashed potatoes too...

Traci's Twice Baked Potatoes

6 large baking potatoes
olive oil (for rubbing over outside of potato for crisp skins)
2 1/2 tablespoons milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/3 cup sharp Cheddar cheese, grated
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion

Preheat oven to 400

Wash the potatoes and poke them with a fork is several places around the potato. 

Rub the potatoes with the olive oil and place them on a jellyroll pan or a large cookie sheet with a rim. 

Bake the potatoes whole for one hour, turning once halfway through baking.  Remove the potatoes from the oven and cut them in half lengthwise. 

 Reduce the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees F.

When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, scoop out the potato flesh into a large bowl. Add the milk, butter, sour cream, cheese, garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Mash with fork or potato masher until it has a lumpy mashed potato consistency and all ingredients are mixed well

 Spoon the mashed potato mixture evenly into the hallowed out potato shells. Return the potatoes to the oven for 15 minutes. 

Remove from the oven and garnish with the bacon and green onion.
