Ingredients
- 3-4 3-4 medium baked potatoes
- 3-4 3-4 slices Bacon diced, thick-cut bacon recommended
- 1/4 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 4 cups milk
- 1 1 cup chicken stock or broth or broth
- 1/2 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Optional toppings:
- cheddar cheese grated
- green onions sliced
- caramelized onions
- sour cream
- chives
Instructions
- Dice bacon and cook over medium heat in at least a 3-quart Dutch oven until crisp and cooked throughout. With a slotted spoon, remove cooked bacon from the Dutch oven. Whisk the flour into the bacon renderings until well-combined but do not cook until browned. Whisk in milk, stock, and salt. Continue stirring until soup has thickened and begins to bubble, about 12 minutes.
- Split baked potatoes in half and scoop insides of the baked potatoes into the thickened soup or peel the potatoes, give them a rough chop and add them into the soup. Using a potato masher or an immersion blender, incorporate the baked potatoes into the soup until well combined.
- Top with optional toppings and serve hot.
- Alternately, store without the optional toppings in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator or a freezer safe container for up to 1 month in the freezer.
