🧀 Ingredients
- 2 cups mashed potatoes (cooled)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- 4–6 eggs (depending on muffin size)
- 2 tablespoons milk or cream
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions or chives
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: cooked bacon bits, diced ham, or sautéed vegetables
🥔 Step 1: Prepare the Mashed Potato Base
Start with your mashed potatoes in a large mixing bowl. If they’re cold from the fridge, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes so they’re easier to mix.
Add:
- Melted butter
- Milk or cream
Mix until smooth and creamy again. This step helps restore the soft texture and prevents the muffins from drying out during baking.
🧂 Step 2: Add Flavor and Texture
Stir in:
- Shredded cheese
- Chopped green onions or chives
- Salt and pepper
If you’re adding extras like bacon or vegetables, fold them in now. This is where you can customize the flavor to your liking.
