Yummy Potato Skins

Potato skins super perfect picnic food. Here is the super yummy recipe:

  • 6 small russet potatoes, scrubbed 
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil, or as needed
  • salt to taste
  • 6 slices center-cut bacon
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese, or to taste
  • ¼ cup sour cream, or to taste
  • 2 medium green onions, thinly sliced

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Rub potatoes with olive oil and place on a baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  4. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out flesh, leaving 1/4 inch on the skin. Brush canola oil all over potato skins, outside and inside, then sprinkle with salt. Reserve flesh for another use.
  5. Bake skins in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip and continue baking for 10 minutes more. Remove from the oven and turn on the oven’s broiler.
  6. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon on a paper towel-lined plate; crumble.
  7. Arrange potato skins flesh-side up on a roasting pan or rack; season flesh with black pepper. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. Cook under the preheated broiler until cheese is bubbly, about 2 minutes. Remove from the oven.
  8. Add a dollop of sour cream to each skin and sprinkle with green onions to serve.
  9. Picnic ready!
