Ingredients

  • 1 large russet potato
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • Salt and pepper
  • Sour cream and chives, as desired

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Line cookie sheet with foil. Scrub potato well with stiff-bristled brush, and rinse.
  • 2
    Place two chopsticks or two wooden spoon handles parallel to each other a few inches apart. Place potato, widest side down, between chopsticks. Use sharp knife to cut deep slits, about 1/4-inch apart, crosswise into potato, cutting most of the way down, but not all the way through, using chopsticks as a guide. Brush potato all over with melted butter, making sure to get some butter into cuts; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on cookie sheet.
  • 3
    Bake about 1 hour or until potato is tender throughout. The cuts in the potato should open like an accordion. Brush with additional butter, making sure each cut gets buttered. Bake 5 minutes. Serve with sour cream and chives.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cooking time is the same for multiple potatoes -- these are great to do in a batch!
  • tip 2
    Make a build-your-own hasselback bar with all the things you love on your baked potatoes -- like sour cream, chives, bacon, jalapeños, salsa, steamed broccoli, cheese!
