Ingredients
- 6 russet potatoes, thoroughly washed
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- ½ pound butter
- 1 handful Cathedral City Mature Cheddar Cheese, grated, for each potato
- 6-8 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 236 ml (1 cup) sour cream
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
- Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
- Wrap the 6 potatoes in aluminum foil.
- Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake for about 50 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
- Unwrap the potatoes (be careful, they’re hot!) before cutting them into quarters and mashing them lightly with a fork.
- To each potato, add a generous slice of butter, 1-2 slices of crumbled bacon, and a delicious handful of shredded Cathedral City Mature Cheddar Cheese.
- Transfer the potatoes back into the oven for 4-5 minutes on high to melt the cheese.
- Top with a dollop of sour cream, thinly sliced green onion, and (for extra indulgence) a little more crumbled bacon.
- Enjoy!
