🔪 How to Make Sliced Baked Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  2. Slice the potatoes: Place each potato on a cutting board and make thin slices (about ⅛–¼ inch apart), being careful not to cut all the way through. You can place chopsticks or wooden spoons on either side of the potato to help stop the knife.
