    Prep

    Let the baked potatoes cool slightly before scooping out the flesh — piping hot potatoes are difficult to handle and more likely to tear the skin you're trying to keep intact.

    Instructions:

    1. Bake the Potatoes: Preheat oven to 205°C (400°F). Scrub and dry the potatoes, rub with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 55–65 minutes until tender all the way through.
    2. Prep the Potatoes: Let cool slightly. Slice a rectangle lengthwise from the top of each potato. Scoop out about ¾ of the flesh, leaving the skins intact. Add the scooped flesh to the broccoli cheddar soup and stir well.
    3. Add Cheese and Broil: Fill the hollowed potato skins with dairy-free cheddar shreds. Place under the broiler for 3–5 minutes until melted and bubbly.
    4. Assemble: Spoon the hot broccoli cheddar soup generously into each potato. Drizzle with cashew cream and top with spring onions and freshly cracked black pepper.
    Common Mistakes, Notes, Storage, Swaps & Tips

    Notes: The scooped potato flesh stirred into the soup thickens it naturally and adds a wonderful starchy body. Use the broccoli cheddar soup recipe linked in the ingredients, but omit the potatoes from that recipe since the potato flesh from these goes in instead.

    Storage: Store leftover filled potatoes in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15–20 minutes, or microwave for 2–3 minutes.

    Tips: Rub the potato skins with coarse salt and olive oil before baking for extra crispy, flavorful skins. Broil at the highest rack position for the meltiest, bubbliest cheese topping.

    Why these Ingredients

    This recipe leans on a handful of key ingredients to get its flavor and texture right. The russet potatoes adds heartiness and a creamy texture once cooked. The olive oil brings fruity depth and helps carry the other flavors. The salt to taste sharpens and balances every other flavor in the dish. The cashew cream blends into a rich, creamy base that stands in for dairy.
