Golden, cheesy, and a little crispy around the edges, these mashed potato puff bites are the ultimate party snack or side dish. They transform everyday mashed potatoes into irresistible, bite-sized treats that are perfect for any occasion.
For gluten-free, use gluten-free bread crumbs or omit them. For dairy-free, use plant-based cheese and milk. Use cold mashed potatoes for best results. Let puffs cool slightly before removing from the pan to prevent breaking. Customize with bacon, jalapeños, or veggies as desired.
