Grandma Benson’s Baked Potatoes

Wash potatoes, peels on, and slice in half lengthwise.
Poke with knife point to make tiny slits. Don’t poke all the way through.

Place on baking sheet in 425F oven for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and butter the cut sides of the potatoes lightly.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and/or whatever else you like (garlic or onion powder? surely anything goes).
Return to oven another 45 minutes or until potatoes are cooked through and tops begin to turn brown. 



I like to cook them till the tops are crispy sometimes too.
