Vegan Baked Potato is my favorite comfort food. These twice-baked Potatoes with jacket, filled with vegan baked potato toppings. It’s a total game-changer for cooking spuds!
Vegan Baked Potato
Vegan twice-baked jacket potatoes stuffed with vegan baked potato toppings like tofu sour cream, vegan bacon bits, diced bell peppers, and topped with vegan grated cheese.
The taste is amazing, savory, cheesy, and gluten-free! This recipe can also be made in an air fryer when you don’t have time to preheat the oven.
Vegan Twice Baked Loaded Potatoes (Stuffed Potatoes)
A baked potato is sometimes called a jacket potato. In fact, potato skin has more nutrients (fiber, iron, vitamin B3…etc.) than potato flesh.
Potatoes with skin wrapped in parchment paper and covered in foil. First, bake at 356°F/180°C for 45-60 minutes (depending on the size of the potatoes) until the flesh is soft.
Cut open, add our vegan toppings, and bake a second time around 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy. The potatoes look absolutely delicious and appetizing
Vegan Baked Potato Recipe
- Types of Potatoes – Any starchy-type potatoes will work for baked potatoes ( Russet, Maris Pepper, King Edwards, Royal Blue, Sebago…etc). Choose medium size around 8oz/300g each. If too big, takes too long to cook; too small, not enough space to load up the toppings.
Baked potato vegan toppings
These are my favorite toppings:
- Dairy-Free Sour Cream (Tofu Sour Cream) – I love my homemade tofu sour cream recipe for an easy and delicious sour cream substitute. However, you can also use store-bought vegan sour cream if you like.
- Vegan Bacon Bits – I like my homemade vegan bacon bits because they’re super easy to make at home. You could use store-bought vegan bacon if you like.
- Red and Green Pepper- deseeded and small diced.
- Vegan Grated Cheese
How to Make
- Preheat the oven to 356°F/180°C. The four potatoes chosen are approximately the same size. Scrub and dry the potatoes on a clean kitchen towel. Put them in a bowl and rub them thoroughly with olive oil and sea salt.
- Line four pieces of parchment paper over the foil paper. Each potato should be placed on top, then wrapped and sealed.
- Place them on a baking tray, and bake in the oven or air fryer at 356°F/180°C for 45-60 minutes (depending on the size of the potatoes) until the flesh is soft (check with a fork to see if you can easily poke through). The purpose of wrapping potatoes in foil is to prevent burns on the potato skin. The skin will crisp up on the second bake.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, remove them from the oven and rest for a few minutes.
- Fold down the foil around halfway ( it’s optional, I like to do this way because it’s easier to serve individually and prettier on plates).
- Cut open the potatoes then stuff them with vegan sour cream, vegan bacon bits, small diced green and bell pepper, then topped with vegan grated cheese. Sprinkle more sea salt on the top.
- Bake again at 356°F/180°C for 20-25 minutes. Until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
- Once they are cooked, remove them from the oven. Allow them to cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle more toppings and chopped fresh herbs than serve. Enjoy!😉
