Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and thoroughly dry the russet potatoes. Poke several holes in each potato using a fork. Rub the potatoes with avocado oil, sprinkle salt and pepper over them, and bake for 50-60 minutes, until fork-tender.
  3. Remove the potatoes from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes. Slice each potato in half lengthwise and scoop out most of the insides.
  4. In a mixing bowl, combine the scooped potato flesh with hot milk and unsalted butter. Mash until smooth and fluffy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Spoon the mashed potato mixture back into each hollowed potato skin. Create a well in the center, add crispy beef bacon, and a generous amount of cheddar cheese. Crack a large egg into each well.
  6. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until egg whites are set but yolks remain slightly runny.
  7. Let the potatoes cool for a few minutes before serving warm.
