Ingredients:
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 strips of bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 2 green onions, sliced
- Sour cream, for serving (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Prepare Potatoes: Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
- Season Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
- Arrange on Baking Sheet: Arrange the potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and golden brown, flipping halfway through.
- Add Cheese and Bacon: Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the potato rounds. Then, sprinkle the crumbled bacon on top.
- Bake Again: Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with sliced green onions.
- Serve: Serve the cheesy baked potato rounds warm, with sour cream on the side if desired.
