INGREDIENTS
Pro Tips:
- Extra Crispy Skin: For even crispier potato skins, bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack without using foil.
- Mix It Up: You can add other toppings like crispy bacon bits, sautéed mushrooms, or steamed broccoli for added texture and flavor.

Process:
-
Prepare the Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Pat them dry with a towel.
- Poke a few holes in each potato with a fork, then rub them with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
-
Bake the Potatoes:
- Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack or on a baking sheet. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the skins are crispy and a fork can easily pierce through the flesh.
-
Cut and Fluff the Potatoes:
- Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven. Let them cool slightly, then cut a slit down the middle of each potato. Gently squeeze the ends to fluff the insides.
-
Top with Zafy Sauce:
- Spoon about 1/2 oz of Sauce Pantry Zafy Sauce over each baked potato, letting it seep into the fluffy potato.
-
Add Optional Toppings:
- If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the Zafy Sauce. The heat from the potato will melt the cheese. Add a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped green onions or chives.
-
Serve:
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve the potatoes hot.
