Cheesy Mashed Potato Muffins with Eggs: The Ultimate Breakfast Mash-Up

If you’ve ever dreamed of combining creamy mashed potatoes, gooey cheese, and perfectly cooked eggs into one hand-held breakfast treat, then these Cheesy Mashed Potato Muffins with Eggs are about to change your mornings forever. They’re the ultimate mash-up of comfort and convenience—crispy on the outside, soft and cheesy on the inside, with a golden baked egg waiting in every bite. Here’s how to make them step by step.


Ingredients

For 6–8 muffins, you’ll need:

  • 2 cups mashed potatoes (leftover or freshly made, buttery and creamy)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a blend of cheddar and mozzarella for extra meltiness)
  • 2–3 large eggs (plus 1 extra for brushing, optional)
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup cooked bacon or ham, chopped (optional, for a meaty twist)
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions or chives (for freshness)
  • Non-stick cooking spray or muffin liners

Step 1: Prepare the Mashed Potato Base

Start with smooth, buttery mashed potatoes. If using leftovers, warm them slightly to make mixing easier. In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes with melted butter, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the texture is creamy but firm enough to hold its shape.

Tip: If your mashed potatoes are too soft, add 1–2 tablespoons of flour or breadcrumbs to help them set in the muffin tins.


Step 2: Mix in the Cheese and Add-Ins

Fold in shredded cheese, bacon or ham, and green onions. These ingredients will melt and infuse the muffins with flavor as they bake. Make sure the mixture is evenly combined so every muffin gets a taste of all the goodies.
