Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 1 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup chopped green onions
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thoroughly wash and scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a clean towel.
Prick each potato a few times with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with the melted coconut oil, ensuring they are well-coated.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are baking, prepare the 'cheesy' topping: In a small bowl, mix the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
When the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven. Using a knife, create a slit along the top of each potato and gently squeeze to open them.
Sprinkle the prepared nutritional yeast mixture generously into the opened potatoes.
Top each potato with chopped green onions and fresh parsley for added flavor and color.
Serve immediately while hot, and enjoy your Whole30-compliant cheesy baked potatoes!
