Ingredients

• 2 pieces Large Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Light buttery spread
• 4 tablespoons Low-fat sour cream
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Chopped chives

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt, then pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 3

Using a fork, poke the potatoes several times on all sides to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 4

Place the potatoes directly on the middle oven rack and bake for 60 minutes or until they are tender throughout when pierced with a fork.

Step 5

Once baked, remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes until they are safe to handle.

Step 6

Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of each potato and gently squeeze the ends to open them up, fluffing the insides with a fork.

Step 7

Add 1 tablespoon of light buttery spread to each potato, allowing it to melt into the fluffy insides.

Step 8

Spoon 2 tablespoons of low-fat sour cream over each potato.

Step 9

Season the potatoes with salt and black pepper to your taste.

Step 10

Sprinkle chopped chives over the top for added flavor and garnish.

Step 11

Serve immediately while hot for the best taste and texture.
