How to Make Simple Twice Baked Potatoes
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Scrub 4 medium russet potatoes and lightly grease them with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
- Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until tender and the skin is crispy.
- While potatoes are still hot, carefully slice them in half lengthwise and scoop the insides into a large bowl, reserving the potato skins.
- Add 2 tablespoons of butter or margarine, 1 packet (1 ounce) of onion soup mix, and salt and pepper to taste to the bowl with the potato flesh.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth.
- Gradually add 1/4 cup of milk (or more, as needed) to achieve a fluffy mashed potato consistency.
- Spoon the potato mixture back into the reserved potato skins.
- Optional: At this point, you can cover the potatoes and freeze them for later use. To reheat from frozen, bake at 400°F (200°C) until heated through and crispy.
- Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are heated through and the tops are golden brown and crispy.
