Instructions

How to Make Twice Baked Loaded Breakfast Potatoes

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub and dry the russet potatoes, rub them with oil, and sprinkle with salt.
  • Bake the potatoes in the oven for about 50 minutes until fork-tender. Allow them to cool slightly.
  • Slice each potato in half lengthwise, scoop out the insides, leaving a thin shell.
  • Mash the scooped potato with butter, sour cream, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  • Stir in bacon, cheese, and green onions. If desired, add an egg to each potato shell before spooning in the filling.
  • Fill the potato shells with the creamy mixture and top with more cheese.
  • Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until heated through and cheese is bubbly.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze individually for up to 2 months.
