Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 pieces Baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Crumbled cooked bacon
- 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Place them on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly until they are easy to handle.
Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Using a small spoon or melon baller, carefully scoop out most of the potato flesh into a mixing bowl, leaving a thin shell intact.
Mash the scooped-out potato flesh with butter, sour cream, garlic powder, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with additional salt or pepper.
Spoon the mashed potato mixture back into the hollowed-out potato shells, slightly mounding it on top.
Sprinkle the filled potatoes with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon.
Return the stuffed potatoes to the oven and bake for another 7–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
Remove from the oven and garnish each potato with a sprinkle of chopped green onions. Serve warm and enjoy!
