LOADED SLICED BAKED POTATOES– For a fun twist on the classic baked potato, make these cheesy Loaded Sliced Baked Potatoes. Thick potato slices baked until golden brown then topped with melted cheddar, crispy bacon, and chopped green onions, served with sour cream for dipping.
The whole family will love these fantastic Loaded Sliced Baked Potatoes! They remind me of a mashup of a baked potato and loaded potato skins. Just pop the potato slices into the oven while you cook the rest of your dinner, then you’ll brush them with the secret ingredient… bacon drippings (seriously, it makes them so good!) and bake again for another 10 minutes. Lastly, pile the potatoes high with cheese and bacon and bake again until all melted, then sprinkle with herbs and green onions. You’ll love these potatoes!
Ingredients
- 3 Russet potatoes, medium to large washed and sliced to ¼ inch thick slices
- 4 Tablespoons butter melted
- salt to taste and sprinkle
Garnish
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup bacon bits
- ¼ cup green onion chopped
How To Make LOADED SLICED BAKED POTATOES
- Line a 10×15-inch baking sheet with sides with foil and drizzle on the melted butter. Then cover each side of the potato slices in the butter and place them tightly side by side one at a time. Try to make sure that one side is completely touching the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle the potato slices with salt.
- Next, bake the potato slices at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes until the potatoes are tender and the sides are browning. Hint: If the thickest potato slice is easily pierced with a fork, they are done!
- Remove the slices from the oven and garnish them with the cheese and bacon bits. Place the baking sheet back in the oven for a few minutes(1-3 minutes) just until the cheese has melted, and then remove it again and garnish with the green onions. Cool for a minute and serve warm!
