📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2
Scrub the potatoes clean and allow them to dry. Using a paper towel (or just your hands), rub the skin of the potatoes with 2 tablespoons canola oil so that they're nice and moist.
3
Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until skin is crisp and potatoes are tender, 30 to ⏱️ 40 minutes. Remove the pan and allow to cool until you can handle the potatoes, about ⏱️ 10 minutes.
4
Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Scoop out the insides, leaving a little bit of potato in the skins.
5
In a saucepan or microwave-proof bowl, melt the butter with the remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil. Brush the mixture on both the outside and the inside of the potatoes. Sprinkle the inside lightly with salt. Place potato halves face-down and return to the oven for 5 to ⏱️ 8 minutes. Using tongs, turn the potatoes over and continue to bake until the edges of the potatoes start to turn golden brown, 8 to ⏱️ 10 minutes.
6
Remove from oven. Sprinkle the insides of the potato skins with cheddar, then sprinkle on the chopped bacon. Return to the oven long enough for the cheese to melt, about 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes.
7
Serve immediately with sour cream and green onion. Yum!
