Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Clean the large russet potatoes and poke holes in them with a fork.
- Rub the potatoes with avocado oil and sprinkle generously with salt and black pepper.
- Bake the potatoes directly on the oven rack for 50–60 minutes until tender.
- Cool for about 10 minutes, then slice in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the insides.
Filling and Baking
- Mash the scooped potato with hot milk, unsalted butter, salt, and pepper until smooth.
- Fill the hollowed potato skins with the mashed mixture, create a well, and add bacon, cheese, and an egg.
- Lower the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes.
- Cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs or hot sauce if desired.
