Ingredients:

3 potatoes
1110g
1 cup white beans
180g
1/4 cup milk (1% fat)
60g
1/8 tsp garlic powder
0.37g
1/8 tsp salt
0.72g
2 tbsp onion
20g
2 tbsp red pepper
18g
1/4 tsp paprika
0.52g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Bake the Potatoes:
Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then pierce each potato several times with a fork. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
3. Prepare the Filling Mixture:
- While the potatoes are baking, rinse the white beans under cold water and drain them.
- In a medium mixing bowl, mash the white beans until smooth.
- When the potatoes are finished baking, let them cool for about 10 minutes so they are easier to handle.
4. Scoop and Mix:
- Cut each potato in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the flesh, leaving a small border around the edge to maintain the shape of the potato skins, and add it to the bowl of mashed beans.
- Add the milk, garlic powder, salt, diced onion, diced red pepper, paprika, and a dash of black pepper to the potato and bean mixture. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and creamy.
5. Fill the Potatoes:
- Spoon the filling mixture back into the potato skins, pressing it down gently to fill all the space. You can create a nice mound on top for a fuller appearance.
6. Bake Again:
- Place the filled potato halves back onto the baking sheet.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the tops are lightly browned and the filling is heated through.
7. Serve:
Remove from the oven and let the stuffed potatoes cool for a few minutes. Serve warm as a side dish or a main course.

Tips:

- For an extra creamy filling, use a hand mixer to blend the ingredients thoroughly.

- Feel free to add some shredded cheese or cooked bacon bits to the potato mixture for additional flavor.

- If you prefer a vegan version, substitute the milk with a plant-based milk and ensure the spices are free from animal products.

- Make sure to prick the potatoes with a fork before baking to allow steam to escape and prevent them from bursting.

- Try using different types of beans or adding other vegetables like spinach or broccoli to customize the recipe.

Once you've completed these steps, you'll have a batch of delicious and creamy twice baked potatoes ready to serve. Whether you're making them for a family dinner, a special occasion, or just a comforting side dish, this recipe is sure to impress. Enjoy the rich flavors and smooth texture of this classic dish.
