Instructions
- 1Wash the two medium-sized potatoes thoroughly. With the sharp point of a knife, make a small cut around each potato to allow the steam to escape during baking.

- 3Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and break them open to allow the steam to escape. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.
