Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Scrub potatoes and cut a small slice from the bottom of each potato. This helps the potatoes lie flat and not roll. Cut 1/4 inch vertical slices making sure not to cut all the way to the cutting surface. You want to keep the slices intact and still joined at the bottom of each potato.

Tear 5 sheets of foil large enough to wrap around each potato. Place 1 potato in each sheet of foil. Drizzle with butter and sprinkle with a generous amount of the seasoned bread crumbs and season with salt and pepper. Wrap foil around potatoes and bake for about 45 minutes.

After initial baking time, partial open each foil wrapped potato and bake for an additional 15 minutes to crisp up the topping.

Remove from the oven and serve warm.
