Twice Baked Mashed Potatoes in their potato skins are such an unbelievably delicious treat.

I love that you can make these potatoes the day before, and just stick them in the oven for 20 minutes, and serve.

The potatoes are so creamy and flavorful with sour cream, butter, freshly shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped spring onions.

Ingredients you need for this dish:

  1. 4 Baking Potatoes (large russet potatoes is what I used)
  2. Butter
  3. Sour Cream
  4. Freshly shredded cheddar cheese
  5. Milk
  6. Bacon (8 slices)
  7. Spring Onions

Most of these ingredients you probably already have in your cabinet, which is nice. The recipe comes together pretty quick and the result is decadent. Trust me.

Tips for these twice baked mashed potatoes:

  1. You can use either a hand mixer or a stand mixer to mix the mashed potatoes. I used my stand mixer because I use it for everything - I just love it, and it's so hands-off, which is awesome.
  2. You can make these twice baked mashed potatoes without sour cream, if you'd like, by swapping in plain greek yogurt. It has a similar consistency and I've used it in mashed potatoes recipes before. It works beautifully.
  3. If you'd like a clean way of making bacon, check out my cooking bacon in the oven post. Virtually no cleanup and the result is perfectly cooked bacon in 20 minutes.
  4. Definitely use freshly shredded cheese. It's just better. More flavorful, soft, and creamy.

How to Make Twice Baked Mashed Potatoes?

  1. With a fork, poke holes in your potatoes, then bake your potatoes either in the microwave for 4 minutes per potato or in the oven set at 350 degrees for 1 hour.
  2. Once cooked, scoop out the potato insides, leaving about a ¼ inch of flesh so the skin will hold its shape. Place the flesh in your stand mixer or bowl if you're using a hand mixer.
  3. Arrange your potato skins in a 13x9 baking dish.
  4. Add the butter, sour cream, cheese, salt, pepper, half of your spring onions, and cheese to the mixing bowl and mix until creamy.
  5. Scoop your potato mixture out and place in potato skins.
  6. Sprinkle half of your cheddar cheese and all of your bacon (crumbled into pieces) on top of potatoes.
  7. Cook at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
  8. The perfect twice baked mashed potatoes await you. Enjoy!
