How To Make caramelized ohio twice-baked potatoes

  • Step 1
    Heat oven to 375
  • Step 2
    Rub potatoes with 1 Tablespoon oil, sprinkle lightly with salt. Transfer to large baking sheet.
  • Step 3
    Bake until tender in the center, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
  • Step 4
    While the potatoes are baking, heat 2 Tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in half crosswise. Scoop out the insides, leaving a 1/8 inch border and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Step 6
    Mash with the sour cream and a bit of salt and pepper. Fold in most of the scallions and all of the onions.
  • Step 7
    If necessary, slice a thin piece off the rounded ends of each potato so they can stand upright and form a cup.
  • Step 8
    Transfer the potato skins back to the baking sheet. Divide the filling among the potato halves (about 1/2 cup each) and bake until heated through, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Step 9
    Sprinkle with additional scallions and pepper, if desired.
