How to make twice baked potatoes: Twice baked potato recipe - TODAY

What makes a baked potato twice as good? Baking it twice! And with the addition of cheddar cheese, sour cream and chives, of course, it's a simple method that turns a regular baked potato into way more than the sum of its parts.

Here’s how to make classic, stuffed, twice-baked potatoes that work as a vegetarian main course or a side dish for a steakhouse-style dinner. Feel free to use plain Greek yogurt in place of sour cream or substitute your favorite shredded cheese instead of cheddar.

To get started, here's what you'll need:

• 4 russet potatoes, scrubbed
• 1/2 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons minced chives, plus more for garnish
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1. Bake the potatoes

Poke holes in potatoes and bake for 45 minutes to an hour, until cooked through.Casey Barber / Good Food Stories LLC

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Poke the potatoes a few times with the tip of a paring knife or a fork and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes to an hour, until cooked through. Test with a paring knife — if you can insert it into the center of the potato and not feel resistance, it’s done.

Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees.

As soon as the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut each in half lengthwise.

2. Fill the potatoes
