Homemade Baked Potato Soup

I love fall for a lot of reasons, but one of the largest is that I can make soup again. I love, love, love a bowl of soup with some fresh bread, and this is one of my favorite soups.

Ingredients

– Baking potatoes – Butter – Flour – Milk – Salt – Ground pepper

Instructions

First, you’ll need to bake 4 russet potatoes.

Step: 1

When the potatoes have cooled, slice them open and scoop out the potato insides into a bowl (or measuring cup, if that’s what’s handy!).

Step: 2

Step: 3

Next, cook the bacon until it’s crispy and browned. Since the bacon is going to be chopped up for use in the soup, you may want to chop it up before you cook it.

Step: 4

On to the soup base! Melt the butter in a large pot, and stir in the flour. Stir and cook the flour/butter mixture for 1 minute.
