See what to do: How To Bake a Potato in the Oven. Preheat the oven to 425Â°F. Rub the potatoes with olive oil, sprinkle them with salt and pepper, and prick them with the tines of a fork. You can lay them directly on the oven rack or place them on a baking sheet.
Space the potatoes on a rack in the preheated oven so there is at least an inch of space around each potato. In a standard oven you should be able to have three rows with five potatoes in each row. Bake the potatoes for about 50 minutes. Use an oven mitt to remove one potato to test it. The potato is done if it feels soft and has a tender feel when you pierce it with a fork. If the potato is not done, put it back in and cook an additional 10 minutes.
