Mashed Potatoes in Muffin Tins Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by kallen2302

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 yukon gold potatoes
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons cooked bacon pieces
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons green onions
2 tablespoons melted butter

Steps:

  • Scrub potatoes and cut in half. Add them to a pot of water to cover the potatoes and bring to a boil. Boil for 20 minutes or until soft for a fork. Drain potatoes and mash potatoes plain with butter. Add yummy ingredients like cooked bacon, cheese, green onion and anything else you might like and have around your kitchen. Stuff in to a greased muffin tin, run a fork along the top and brush with melted butter or olive oil. Bake at 375°F for about 15 minutes, or until tops are crispy and golden. Tip: If your tops are not browning as expected try broiling them for a few minutes or until browned.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold. These potatoes will mash up smoothly and create a creamy texture.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are very tender: This will ensure that they mash up easily and create a smooth batter.
  • Season the mashed potatoes well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of salt, pepper, and other seasonings to the mashed potatoes. This will help to flavor the muffin cups and make them more delicious.
  • Add mix-ins: Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins to the mashed potato batter, such as cheese, bacon, or chopped vegetables. This will help to create a more flavorful and interesting muffin cup.
  • Bake the muffin cups until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy exterior.
