Wash and clean potatoes. Prick each potato with a fork. Grease each potato with oil. Wrap individually in foil. Bake at 450° directly on wire rack in oven. For smaller potatoes, bake for 1 hour. For larger potatoes, bake 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

When baked, cut in half and fluff pulp with a fork. Serve with butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon bits, salt and pepper.

NOTE: If you want to speed up the process, you can put the potatoes in the microwave on high for 2 minutes after you prick them and before greasing with oil. This will take about 20-30 minutes off your baking time.

Baked potatoes are so simple, yet perfect for any meal. Throw them in the oven and then top the potatoes with your favorite toppings when they are done. Not to mention budget friendly, too.
