I wanted a new way to use leftover mashed potatoes. I thought individual servings would be a fun way to do them and would allow for more surface area to brown! I added meat & cheese so I only needed to make a veggie on the side.

How To Make potato puffs

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Step 2

Spray cups of muffin pan with no stick spray.
Step 3

Heat mashed potatoes in microwave.
Step 4

Fill each muffin cup about 1/3 full with potatoes leaving a dip in the middle.
Step 5

Place 1 meatball in the dip.
Step 6

Sprinkle with shredded cheese.
Step 7

Add more potatoes, pressing down to edges of cup and making a slightly rounded peak on the top.
Step 8

Bake for about 20 minutes or until heated through. This step will take less time if your potatoes and meatballs are well warmed to begin with.
Step 9

Turn oven temp up to 450 degrees for 5-10 minutes or until the tops are slightly browned.
Step 10

Run butter knife around edges to make sure they are loose then lift out (I used the knife & a fork and they came right out).
