4. Top with Butter and Hummus:
- Once the potato is baked, carefully remove it from the oven.

6. Serve: Serve immediately while warm and enjoy your delicious baked potato with a creamy hummus and butter topping!

Tips:

- For a crispy skin, make sure to prick the potato with a fork before baking to allow steam to escape.

- If you prefer, you can use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a slightly different flavor.

- For added flavor, consider mixing some garlic powder or paprika into the hummus before spreading it on the potato.

- To save time, you can microwave the potato for about 5-7 minutes on high before finishing it off in the oven to achieve a crispy skin.

- Feel free to add some fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley, as a garnish for a burst of freshness.
