Has anyone made a baked potato or 2 in this unit?

I made two sweet potatoes, and it worked very well. You need to follow the directions. I am pleased with the toaster oven.

No, not all at one time. What I've done is cook 4 minutes then wait 30 seconds then cook 4 more minutes. This makes the potatoes super soft. This product is amazing. I've used it for sweet potatoes and broccoli too. I put veggies in a Baggie then in this bag. 4 minutes works for veggies too.

I haven't tried that. I suppose you could if the potatoes were extremely done, maybe overcooked.

Absolutely. I prick holes in each potato with a fork,rub the outside with a dab of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 60 minutes or until cooked through.

I have made a potatoe starter recipe on the dough cycle and it works just fine. I half my recipe because I'm afraid 6 cups of flour might be too much for it to mix properly. One problem I have with my machine on the dough cycle is the timer doesn't beep at the end anymore. It has quit working.

Forget the bag! Sorry...better off getting a nice crisp skin on the potato re the oven at 400 degrees, and a nice fluffy potato interior. What a waste of money with the bag, I know, I bought one.

This oven works like a normal oven; therefore about one hour. Of course the baking time depends on a lot of variables - are you using the blower, what temperature have you set the oven at and lastly, how large is the potato?

Haven't tried that. We do use sensor for baked potatoes & sweet potatoes, and it does a great job.

I have a 1230w microwave and heat it on high. I've only tried baking one potato inside the bag (it doesn't seem to be big enough for four). Another thing I do that works well, is after washing the potato (do not dry it), I wrap it in a damp paper towel and put them both in the bag. When the 4 minutes is up, you'll see steam, but the potato comes out nice and soft and ready to eat.

I have just started using it myself. Heats up leftovers well and quickly. I'm not sur how it would do with a potatoe. Might be best to micro those.

When I bought from this seller he did have the mashed potatoes but I'm not sure about the soft bakes.. Hope this helps some

I have not tried to make one, but given the design where cooking plates are divided into two waffle shapes, it seems feasible. I hope this helps.

No but I've made a ton of pizza's on it. My dough recipe is a winner--4 C flour, 1 1/2 C water, 1T Salt 1T bakers yeast, 1 T brown sugar. I put it in breadmaker and press "9" for dough. This makes four 13" pizzas. When pressed for time i just buy the Boboli crusts at the grocery store. you can find a ton of recipes on line / youtube. One of the best food investments i've made (ranks among espresso machine, Weber gas grill, Boos cutting board and Pastry scraper)

A good sized baked potato - 5 to 6 inches long with a good size girth. But the bigger the potato the more effort you need to push it threw. It is a good machine.

depending on size 1hr to 1.5 hrs. I baked three fairly large potatoes and they were done in 1.5 hrs at 350.

i didn't try to use it on fresh potato, but it works with cooked one. just make slices then press with cutter to have cubes. it is very helpful to make salad.

I used it twice and threw away. Potatoes cooked very unevenly. Not worth the $ at all
