Steps

1

After rinsing your potato under running water until clean, wrap a large Maris piper (ideally) potato in foil - bare, with nothing on the potato and no need to prick with a fork. Bake in the oven for 1 -2 hours at 200 degrees C/400 degrees F, which is a moderately hot oven, time will depend on the size of your potato. Keep checking if you are not sure the first time.
2

When soft...push a sharp knife through the foil to test...remove from the oven and discard the foil.
3

Spray the baked potato all over with coconut oil (you can use other types of spray oil or rub with oil from a jar) The more oil you use the crisper the finished potato will be. A lit spraying will give you a lovely crisp outside jacket.
4

Pop back in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, again depending on how crispy you like your baked potatoes.
5

Cut open, add butter and salt and pepper (white pepper is particularly tasty with potatoes) to your delicious baked potato.

Enjoy!!
