This is a "less mess" recipe. I like making these potatoes when I don't feel like making a big mess in the kitchen when making a meal.
Scrub/wash the potatoes. Pat them dry and coat with a thin layer of oil. Poke holes around the potato with a fork. Wrap in the foil squares.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Place the potatoes on the middle rack in the oven. Bake for 50 - 60 minutes or until very tender when pierced with a fork.
Crock Pot Method:
Place the foil wrapped potatoes in the crock and cover. Cook on low 7 - 8 hours.
Pressure Cooker Method:
After washing the potatoes, place them on the steamer rack in the cooker. Add 1 1/2 cups of water. Cover and make sure the vent is turned to closed. Press the Lentil/Beans button and the Time Adjust button for a total of 10 minutes.
When the potatoes are done, place them on a plate. Cut the potatoes down the center but, not all the way through. Carefully, squeeze both ends of the potato while pressing towards the center. This allows the middle to blossom out. Place 1 tablespoon of butter on each potato, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
