Bacon Hasselback Potatoes
Have you ever had Hasselback potatoes? Essentially they are oven roasted potatoes that you cut slits in & put oil & salt on. It’s sort of a cross between a baked potato & a French fry.
Our family loves Hasselback potatoes, much more than baked & we’re always looking for ways to make potatoes in a different way.
Recently we decided to try them with BACON! Our final vote? They were good with the bacon, but it didn’t add that much more than just adding the bacon grease…seemed like the bacon grease is the key ingredient. 😊 (or maybe we didn’t add enough bacon…)
You can do thin or wide slices, we have found the thicker to be our family preference, although I think thinner gets crispier.
Bake in a convection oven set at 375° for about 40-60 minutes…depends on so many factors – size of your potatoes, how crispy you want them, how many you stuffed in a pan…etc. You will know they’re done when they are fork tender. If you don’t have a convection oven, raise the temperature to 400°.
