Oven Baked Potatoes

Oven baked potatoes are a classic dish that can be enjoyed as a simple side or
loaded up with tasty toppings to be the main course! They take essentially no
prep time as the oven does all of the hard work for you! The outside is
perfectly brown and crispy with a salted crust while the inside is light,
fluffy, and super delicious!

serve immediately with your desired toppings.
