Creating Loaded Baked Potato Pizza is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If you’re using a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up as well.
2. Cook Potatoes: Wash the russet potatoes and pierce them with a fork. Microwave them for about 10-12 minutes until they are tender. Let them cool slightly before handling.
3. Prepare Pizza Crust: If you’re using a store-bought pizza crust, follow the instructions for pre-baking if necessary. If using homemade, roll it out to your desired thickness.
4. Mash Potatoes: Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel and mash them in a bowl. Add sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix until smooth and creamy.
5. Assemble Pizza: Spread the mashed potatoes evenly over the pizza crust, leaving a small border for the crust.
6. Add Cheese and Bacon: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the mashed potatoes, followed by crumbled bacon.
7. Bake Pizza: Place the pizza in the preheated oven (or on the hot pizza stone) and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the crust is golden brown.
8. Add Green Onions: Once the pizza is out of the oven, sprinkle with chopped green onions for added flavor and freshness.
9. Slice: Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing it into wedges.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible pizza effortlessly.
