Ingredients you’ll need to make Loaded baked potato soup.

  • 4 slices bacon, diced
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 3 ½ cups milk, plus more as needed
  • 4 russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Step by Step Instructions

Instructions

  1. Cook the Bacon:
    Heat a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the diced bacon and cook until it’s crispy and golden brown, about 6-8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set it aside for later.
  2. Make the Roux:
    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture is lightly browned, about 1 minute.
  3. Add the Milk:
    Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure to stir constantly to avoid lumps. Cook the mixture until it thickens slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Add the Potatoes, chicken broth, and Green Onions:
    Stir in the cubed potatoes, chicken broth, and sliced green onions. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  5. Incorporate the Cheese, Parm, and Sour Cream:
    Once the potatoes are tender, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, parm, and sour cream. Mix until the cheese is melted and the soup is smooth. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If the soup becomes too thick, add more milk, a little at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
  6. Serve and Garnish:
    Ladle the soup into bowls and top with crispy bacon, additional shredded cheese, and sliced green onions, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
