Cheesy Mashed Potato Puffs

Ingredients

• 2 cups mashed potatoes (cold or room temperature)
• 2 large eggs
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• ¼ cup sour cream
• ¼ cup chopped green onions or chives
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Butter or non-stick spray (for greasing the muffin tin)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin with butter or non-stick spray.
2. In a large bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, eggs, cheddar cheese, Parmesan, sour cream, green onions, and garlic powder (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin, filling each cup nearly to the top and smoothing out the tops.
4. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown on top and edges are crispy.
5. Let cool for 5 minutes, then gently remove from the tin.
6. Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.

📝 Tips:
