How to Make Easy Creek Potatoes in an Oven
Aunt Lou here.
So my son has been asking for a few weeks for me to make Creek Potatoes, so now you have this easy oven recipe so you can have them too! They are so simple to throw together and give you wonderfully flavored potatoes to go with your favorite main dish. I like to take the bacon pieces and cut them into bite size pieces after cooking so everyone can have a little bacon with their potatoes.
We get asked from time to time for recipes with only a couple servings. This recipe will make enough for 2 to 3 adults or 2 adults and 2 children. If you happen to need to make these for a larger crowd, you can easily double or triple the recipe with a larger aluminum foil boat or by making two or three boats. You will want to watch it closely the first time you make it and allow extra time to adjust for the larger amount of ingredients to cook. These potatoes are a favorite whether they are served at a weeknight dinner at home or a huge gather of family and friends.
(If you want to cRock these potatoes, you can find the crock pot version of the recipe here.)
