1. Poke each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.
2. Rub each potato with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
3. Wrap each potato in aluminum foil and place them in the slow cooker.
4. Cook on low for 7-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours, until potatoes are tender.
5. Once cooked, carefully unwrap each potato. Split them open and fluff the insides with a fork.
6. Top each potato with butter, cheese, bacon, sour cream, and green onions before serving.
Variations & Tips
For a different twist, try using different types of cheese such as mozzarella or gouda, or add additional toppings like diced tomatoes, jalapenos, or ranch dressing. To make it a bit healthier, you could switch out the sour cream for Greek yogurt and use turkey bacon instead of regular bacon.
