How do you make your baked potato skins crispy?

Never tried this, but I would think it would work if you just left them under the broiler for a few minutes.
Is it good to have a crispy skin? I don’t think I’ve ever had it that way, never strived for it either, but it sounds interesting.

Just cook them longer, at a little bit higher heat. A full hour at 400.

I don’t do anything to them besides washing them and making sure I’ve sunk a fork in three or four times.

How high is your oven at? Potatoes do best at higher temperatures (I usually do 425–450)

I do them in the microwave first because I am always in a hurry, then I crisp them up in a very hot oven for about 15 minutes. Works great and @ANef_is_Enuf , I can’t believe you never had a baked potato with a crispy skin, you gotta try it, it’s the best!

And I just like a little olive oil or butter on mine, well salt and pepper of course.

Fair enough, I’ll do that soon.

I like to dump a big pile of broccoli over mine and a little salt and pepper.

Yep that’s good too. I like baked beans on top to add protein, with sriacha, it tastes great!

I did try to put it in at 425 for over an hour… it was delicious but not crispy. My oven calibration must be off (Thanksgiving turkey proved that one) but I figured higher heat was better anyway. I’m going to try to nuke it like @rooeytoo suggested then pop it in a really hot oven with oil and salt.
@ANef_is_Enuf: I do the broccoli too… with tomatoes, chives, a slice of reduced fat swiss and some sour cream. Derish.

Cooking longer may help you.

Rub the skin of the potato with butter…

glaze them with oil until golden brown!
