Instructions
- Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from the oven.
- When potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them lengthwise and scoop out flesh to within 1/4-inch of skin. Reserve flesh for another use. Place skins back onto the baking sheet.
- Combine olive oil, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl; brush over both sides of skins.
- Return to the oven and bake until very crisp, about 10 minutes, turning skins halfway though.
- Sprinkle skins with Cheddar cheese and bacon. Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 2 more minutes.
- Serve topped with sour cream and green onions.
