Ingredients
- 4 Russet potatoes
- Any toppings you want!
Steps
- Wash potato skin thoroughly. It’s optional but you can also coat with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Poke the potato with a fork or knife a few times for the steam to escape.
- Place the potatoes in the microwave. No container needed. I put them on a paper towel, but you don’t have to.
- Cook on high for about 10 minutes. Flip each potato with utensils (careful it will be hot)
- Cook on full power for another 10 mins
- Each baked potato should feel soft to touch when they are done. 20 minutes was plenty with 4 big ones we had. You may need to increase or decrease time a little depending on how many potatoes you are cooking.
- Add chosen toppings (cheese is always a favorite!) and enjoy!
Please be mindful of any allergies you and/or your family may have before you try out this recipe.
