Recipe Notes:

  • Sour Cream: If desired you can use Plain Greek yogurt as a substitute.
  • Cheddar Cheese: Not a fan?  Use your favorite flavor of cheese instead. A easy melting variety will work best.
  • Storage: Store any leftovers in a covered container in the refrigerator. They are best eaten within a week.
  • Freezing? Yes! Prepare the potatoes and fill them. Do not bake them a second time!  Store them in a freezer safe, covered storage bag or container.  When you are ready, remove them from storage and let them come to room temperature.  Bake as noted in recipe.
  • Topping Ideas:  Cooked bacon bits, green onions, additional sour cream, or additional cheddar cheese.

Do I Have to Bake the Potatoes in The Oven?

Honestly, no. If you want to cut back your time, pop them in the air fryer or microwave them for a bit before baking them in the oven.  You do want a crispy potato skin, so, avoid cooking them completely in the microwave.
