Best Bonnies Grandmas Baked Potatoes Recipes

BONNIE'S PERFECT BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees. Bake 45 minutes. If you bake more potatoes than the 3, it may take a few minutes longer for them to get done. Scrub your potatoes. Prick several holes in each potato to release the steam. Take olive oil and generously cover each potato and sprinkle kosher salt over them on both sides. Place potatoes on a baking sheet, and bake. The inside of the baked potato is white and fluffy. You can eat the skins. They are especially delicious with my Simple Romaine Lettuce and Tomato salad with garlic dressing. Spoon the salad in the potato skin and eat like a taco. It is delicious! Enjoy!
• Note: The original recipe listed the temperature of the oven as 450, but mine bakes perfectly in a 400 degree oven.

BONNIE'S GRANDMA'S BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. This recipe is for one baked potato. You can add more if you need to.
• 2. Here is how I bake potatoes to get skin you can eat, and a fluffy white center: Scrub the potatoes, dry with a paper towel, rub with olive oil. Prick with a fork. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes to one hour until they are soft with the fork test. How long it takes will depend on how big the potato is.
• 3. Make a criss cross cut in the center of the potato as shown. The wider the cut, the easier it is to add the ingredients to it. Carefully peel back the 4 corners.
• 4. Stick a dinner fork in the potato and loosen the flesh, dig around to the sides, the length and width of the potato.
• 5. Add the one tablespoon of butter, and stir and mash it around with the fork as it melts, make a little hole and add one tablespoon of evaporated milk, salt and pepper. It may seem like a lot of milk, but the potato will soak it up. Stir gently with the fork.
• 6. Now add the paprika and serve.
• 7. Here is how it looks. Enjoy!
