Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
  2. Scrub the potatoes under cold running water. Prick the potatoes all over with a fork or paring knife.
  3. Place the potatoes on the sheet pan. Brush the olive oil all over the potatoes, then season the potatoes generously with salt.
  4. Place the pan in the oven. Bake for 45-60 minutes or until skins are crisp and insides are tender.
  5. Let potatoes cool for 5 minutes. Cut a slit down the center of each potato and pull the sides back. Fluff the insides of the potatoes with a fork.
  6. Add toppings as desired, then serve.

Notes

  • If you're using larger or small potatoes than the size called for, you will need to adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • Choose potatoes that are similar in size so that they cook at the same rate.
  • For easy cleanup, line a sheet pan with foil, then coat the foil with cooking spray.
