Our friends at All Y'alls Foods (makers of fine vegan bacon bits and plant-based jerky) have helped us get serious about getting our comfort food fix by providing the secret ingredient to this FULLY loaded baked potato recipe. Warning: This dish has been known to hit on a spiritual level.
Equipment
- 1 high-speed blender
Ingredients
Baked Potatoes
- 6 large russet potatoes
- Olive oil
- Coarse sea salt
Bacony Cheddar Sauce
- 1 cup cashews, raw pieces soaked (if using a regular blender)
- 3 cups water
- Juice of ½ lemon
- ½ cup All Yall’s Foods Bacony Bits
- 1 tablespoon tapioca starch
- 2 tablespoons red miso paste
- 1-2 roasted red peppers
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- ½ tsp liquid smoke
- ⅓ cup nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon salt add to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper optional
Garnish
- Green Onions, chopped
- Vegan Sour Cream
- All Yall’s Bacony Bits
Instructions
- Poke potatoes with a fork and roast on a sheet pan at 450℉ for 25 minutes.
- Remove from oven, brush with olive oil, sprinkle with coarse salt and return to oven 20-25 minutes or until they test done by piercing with a fork or paring knife – if it slides through to the center without resistance, the potatoes are done. Set aside.
- Make cheese sauce by adding all ingredients to a high-speed blender and processing until completely smooth.
- Cook over medium heat in a saucepan until thick and just beginning to bubble. Remove from heat.
- To serve, slice baked potatoes down the center, fluff with a fork, and ladle cheese sauce on top. Add a dollop of sour cream and sprinkle bacon bits and sliced onions on top for garnish. Enjoy!
