🌟 Golden, cheesy, and packed with flavor, these Cheesy Herb Mashed Potato Puffs are the perfect way to turn leftover mashed potatoes into a crispy, irresistible snack or side dish! πŸ₯”πŸ§€ Light and fluffy on the inside with a golden crust, they’re easy to make and bursting with cheesy goodness. 🀩 Serve them as an appetizer, a side for dinner, or even a fun brunch treat! 🍽️✨

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups mashed potatoes (leftover works great!)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives, or thyme)
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a bowl, mix mashed potatoes, cheeses, milk, eggs, butter, herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden and slightly crispy.
  5. Let cool for a few minutes before removing. Serve warm!

πŸ“Œ Note: These potato puffs are best enjoyed fresh, but you can reheat them in the oven at 350Β°F (175Β°C) for 5-10 minutes to bring back their crispiness! πŸ”₯ Want extra crunch? Sprinkle a little panko breadcrumbs on top before baking. πŸ˜‹

πŸ’‘ Tip: Add crumbled bacon or a pinch of paprika for extra flavor!

Would you like me to tweak it in any way? 😊
