These mini baked potatoes stuffed with sour cream, chives and crispy bacon are the easiest and cutest appetizer!
Roasted baby potatoes can be loaded so many ways making them perfect for any occasion or dietary restriction. I used lactose-free sour cream in mine, but I know shredded cheddar cheese would be delicious.
Follow these instructions to make quick and easy mini baked potatoes, then scroll down to watch my tutorial video as well as the printable recipe card.
Step 1 – Preheat oven to 375 F. Place washed baby potatoes in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt and toss around to coat thoroughly.
Step 2 –Spread potatoes out evenly on a baking sheet and place in oven for 30 minutes. Toss halfway through to ensure they are browned on all sides.
Step 3 – Meanwhile, cook bacon until crispy. Place sour cream in a bowl. Add ½ of the chopped chives and mix well.
Step 4 – Remove mini baked potatoes and let cool. Once cooled, cut a small lengthwise piece out of each potato making room for the filling.
Step 5 – Fill each baby potato with a spoonful of the sour cream-chive mixture and top with a small piece of crispy bacon. Garnish with more chopped chives.
Mini baked potatoes are best served warm or cold!
Cut a V-shaped wedge out of the mini baked potatoes to create an opening for the sour cream-chive filling (see instruction photos).
Use baby potatoes that are similar in size to ensure even cook time.
Let the roasted baby potatoes cool down before assembling, or the sour cream will melt.
Vegan: Use a lactose-free sour cream (like this homemade one) and skip the bacon.
Add Cheese: Add shredded cheddar to the sour cream mixture for more of a twice baked potato flavor. Or sprinkle shredded parmesan over the potatoes before placing in oven turning them into baked parmesan potatoes.
Yes, air fry in batches (don’t overcrowd basket) at 350F for about 25 minutes.
They should be easy to cut open and soft on the inside.
They can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days after being baked. Wait to add any toppings so you can reheat them again.
Yes, both names refer to a miniature version of a regular potato.
