Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes
- 1 wheel MouCo Camembert cheese
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh chives, finely chopped (for garnish)
- Sour cream (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare and Preheat
To begin, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). As the oven heats, scrub the potatoes clean, and then dry them thoroughly. Be sure to pierce each potato several times with a fork since this ensures even cooking.
Step 2: Bake the Potatoes
Next, rub each potato with olive oil, ensuring they are fully coated. After that, sprinkle them generously with salt and pepper for flavor. Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack, and bake them for 60-70 minutes. During this time, the skins will crisp up while the insides become tender.
Step 3: Prepare the Camembert
While the potatoes are baking, take the MouCo Camembert out of the refrigerator to soften. Then, slice the cheese into thin wedges. This step will make it easier to stuff into the potatoes later.
Step 4: Stuff and Finish
Once the potatoes are done baking, carefully slice each one open to create a pocket. Now, stuff the potatoes with slices of MouCo Camembert, letting the cheese melt into the hot potato. For a finishing touch, top with freshly chopped chives and add a dollop of sour cream if desired.
Conclusion
Savor the Simplicity
With minimal ingredients and a straightforward process, Camembert Baked Potatoes offer a simple yet sensational way to enjoy a classic dish. The creamy, melty texture of MouCo Camembert paired with the crispy baked potato creates a perfect balance of flavors and textures. Whether you’re serving it as a main course or a side, this dish is sure to become a new favorite. So, enjoy the gourmet taste of Camembert Baked Potatoes at your next meal!
