Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the large russet potatoes thoroughly, poke holes in each potato, coat with avocado oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 50-60 minutes until fork-tender.
Cooling & Scooping
  1. Let the potatoes cool for about 10 minutes. Cut each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out the insides, leaving a thin layer to maintain structure.
Mashed Potato Filling
  1. Combine the scooped potato flesh with hot milk, butter, salt, and pepper. Blend until creamy and smooth. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Filling the Shells
  1. Spoon the creamy filling back into each potato shell, top with bacon and cheddar, then crack an egg into the well of each potato.
Final Bake
  1. Lower the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the egg whites are set.
Serving
  1. Allow to cool briefly, serve warm, and garnish with herbs or seasoning as desired.
