Cheesy Mashed Potato Puffs

by

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups mashed potatoes (leftover or freshly made, cooled)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or any cheese you prefer)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped chives or green onions
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Butter or cooking spray (for greasing the muffin tin)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, eggs, sour cream, cheddar cheese, Parmesan, and chives. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  3. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
  4. Spoon the mixture evenly into the muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  5. Optional: sprinkle extra cheese or a bit of Parmesan on top for a golden cheesy crust.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the tops are golden and crispy.
  7. Let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing. Use a butter knife to gently lift them out.
  8. Serve warm with sour cream, ketchup, or your favorite dip.
