When we have leftover mashed potatoes, we try to think of new and interesting ways to use them, and we have to say, we’re pretty proud of ourselves with this one! Loaded with cheese and bacon, these mashed potato puffs are like a baked potato in muffin form. And along with amazing flavor, they also have amazing texture – they’re light and fluffy on the inside, and perfectly crisp on the outside, making them irresistible! We love making them for breakfast or brunch, but honestly any time of day is the right time to enjoy these pillowy little bites!
