  1. How long are the potatoes baked before scooping out the insides to mash and combine? It doesn’t state that in the recipe.

    1. Hi Lori. The prep sheet (which contains night before instructions) give this detail “Pierce with fork. Bake in preheated 400 degree oven for 1 hour or until tender when poked.” The prep sheet is one of the valuable resources our members have access to.
