Broccoli And Cheddar Twice-Baked Potatoes Recipe

Directions:
1/ Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

2/ Scrub the potatoes clean and pierce them several times with a fork. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until tender.

3/ While the potatoes are baking, steam the broccoli florets until tender. Set aside.

4/ Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly until they’re safe to handle.

5/ Slice each potato in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out the flesh into a mixing bowl, leaving a thin shell intact.

6/ Add the steamed broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, butter, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the bowl with the potato flesh. Mash everything together until well combined and creamy.

7/ Spoon the mashed potato mixture back into the potato shells, dividing it evenly among them.

8/ Place the filled potato halves back on the baking sheet and return them to the oven. Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until heated through and lightly golden on top.

9/ Remove the twice-baked potatoes from the oven and garnish with chopped fresh chives or green onions, if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
