Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 1/2 cup chopped bacon

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions

Instructions

  3. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  4. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

  5. Use a fork to scoop out the flesh of the potatoes, leaving a 1/4-inch thick shell.

  6. Top the potato skins with cheese, bacon, sour cream, and green onions.

  7. Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  8. Serve hot.

Tips and Tricks

  • For a crispier potato skin, brush the outside of the potato halves with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper before baking.

  • For a cheesier potato skin, add an additional layer of cheese on top of the bacon and sour cream.

  • For a spicier potato skin, add a sprinkle of chili powder or cayenne pepper to the cheese.

  • To make the potato skins ahead of time, bake them until the cheese is melted and bubbly, but not browned. Let them cool completely, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you are ready to serve, unwrap the potato skins and bake them in a preheated oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Here are some additional tips for making Pizza Pan Potato Skins:

  • Make sure that the potatoes are evenly baked. If they are not, the potato skins will not be crispy.

  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If you put too many potato skins on the baking sheet, they will not cook evenly.

  • Watch the potato skins carefully while they are baking. They can go from golden brown to burnt quickly.

  • Enjoy!
