♬ Soulmate x Amélie x Interstellar x Passacaglia - edit - Andrea VanzoHow To Make Crispy, Cheesy Baked Potatoes
To make them, start by scrubbing large Russet potatoes until they’re clean, then slice them lengthwise to create sturdy halves. Each side gets brushed with olive oil and sprinkled with kosher (or garlic) salt and freshly ground black pepper. I used Sazon Complete because I wanted a little extra flavor.
Next, line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Don't skip this part! I did my first time around, and my potatoes stuck to the baking sheet.
The potatoes bake at 425°F for 30 to 40 minutes, just until they’re tender inside and deeply browned on the outside. When they’re ready, let them cool a few minutes then slice them lengthwise and give them a little squeeze to loosen the fluffy insides.

My Honest Thoughts About This Crispy Baked Potato Recipe
These potatoes bake up crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.The potatoes are delicious straight from the oven, but the best part is how customizable they are. Classic add-ons like sour cream, shredded cheddar, scallions and chopped chives are always a hit. Crumbled bacon (which I added with sour cream) adds smoky crunch, while a little extra butter or Parmesan never hurts.
You can use a different cheese, like cheddar, but just be aware that it might not crisp the same way Parmesan does.
Add your favorite toppings to the crispy, cheesy potatoes. I added sour cream and crispy bacon to mine.In the end, what makes this recipe stand out is that it gives you the perfect baked potato without a ton of fuss. With just a few ingredients and a smart baking technique, your potatoes go from basic to crave-worthy.
