Ingredients

Scale

1 lb baby potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup crispy bacon bits
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sliced green onions

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the baby potatoes, pat dry, and prick each one with a fork.
Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
Spread the potatoes on the baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and fork-tender.
Carefully cut each potato down the middle without cutting all the way through. Stuff with shredded cheese and crispy bacon bits.
Return to the oven for another 5 minutes until the cheese is melted. Top with sour cream and green onions before serving.
