Notes

Don't overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure the Mini Baked Potatoes roast evenly. For extra flavor, consider adding garlic powder or paprika to the olive oil mixture before roasting. Experiment with different cheeses; pepper jack or Gruyere would be excellent alternatives. If you're short on time, microwave the potatoes for a few minutes before baking to speed up the cooking process. For a vegan option, use plant-based sour cream and cheese, and skip the bacon or replace it with crispy tofu bacon bits. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or microwave. Remember to add the toppings just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy. Feel free to change the toppings depending on your preference and what you have available - be creative to create your perfect mini baked potato.
