Description

If you can't decide between preparing a baked potato or potato skins, try this stuffed potato skin recipe that combines both!

Ingredients

2 medium russet potatoes
1/2 medium sweet onion, roughly chopped
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
1/4 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon minced garlic
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons seasoned bread crumbs

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the middle of each, leaving enough to keep the skin intact and stable.
3 Put the raw potato flesh into a food processor along with onion, 1/4 cup of Cheddar cheese, sour cream, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend ingredients together until it is the consistency of a very rough puree (be sure not to blend to a paste). Spoon mixture back into potato shells; top with the remaining Cheddar and sprinkle with bread crumbs.
4 Bake in the preheated oven until tender, about 1 hour.
