How to Prepare Potato Skins with Tempeh Bacon and Cashew Sour Cream [Vegan]
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Lightly brush 3 organic medium/large russet potatoes with a heat-tolerant oil. Avocado oil or grapeseed oil also work well. Pierce all over with a fork and sprinkle on some salt and pepper.
- Bake until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 1 hour.
- While the potatoes are baking, marinate the crumbled tempeh. Whisk the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, tamari, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and pepper in a small dish. Place the crumbled tempeh in a glass dish and pour the liquid marinade over the top. Stir to coat and set aside for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to soak in.
- Cut each potato into halves lengthwise, then into quarters. Scoop out centers, making sure you leave a 1/2-inch thick layer of baked potato on the skins.
- Lightly oil a baking sheet and place potato quarters skin side down on the sheet about 1 inch apart. Bake until crisp, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the tempeh bacon crumbles in a skillet over medium heat until nicely browned and crispy.
- Prepare the cashew sour cream: Blend all ingredients in a blender. A high-speed blender will result in the smoothest sour cream, but if you have a regular blender, it will still turn out-it might not get completely smooth.
- Top the potatoes with the tempeh bacon and cheese and return to the oven until the cheese is golden and bubbly for about 5 minutes.
- Garnish with cashew sour cream and green onion, and serve immediately.
