Ingredients
- 8 sweet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 stick 8 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup chopped crisp-cooked bacon
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups grated jack cheese
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 3 green onions sliced
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Put the potatoes on a baking sheet and rub them with the oil. Bake until soft, about 1 hour. Let cool enough so you can handle them.
- Slice the butter into pats and add to a large bowl. Add the bacon and sour cream.
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scrape out the insides into the bowl, being careful not to tear the skins. Leave a small rim of potato intact for support. Lay the hollowed-out skins on a baking sheet.
