Step 1

Preheat oven to 400ºF.

Step 2

Scrub potatoes clean, dry and poke with a fork. Rub potatoes with olive oil and place on a baking sheet; bake until tender, about 60-70 minutes.

Step 3

Once the potatoes are able to be handled, cut in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving about ¼ inch of potato in the skin.

Step 4

Melt the butter and brush the insides and outsides of the skins. Place them back on the baking sheet and bake for 8 more minutes. Turn the skins over and bake for another 5 minutes.

Step 5

As the skins are crisping, fry the bacon and crumble.

Step 6

Remove skins from the oven. Divide cheddar cheese and bacon evenly between skins. Place back in the oven and cook until cheese melts, about 3 minutes.

Step 7

Top with sliced green onions and sour cream.
