These mashed potato puffs make such a fun appetizer, snack, or side! We love to dip them in my easy ranch dip.

Ingredients
For the potato puffs
- 2 1/2 cups leftover mashed potatoes see notes
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
For the ranch dip
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon dried ranch seasoning
- 1 teaspoon chopped chives
Instructions
To make the potato puffs
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Liberally spray a non-stick mini muffin tin with non-stick spray.
- Add cold, leftover mashed potatoes to a mixing bowl and heat for 1-2 minutes, just to get them soft enough to work with. They don't need to be hot at this point.
- Add the flour, egg, and cheddar cheese to the potatoes and stir well to combine.
- Scoop 1 ½ tablespoons of the potato mixture into each muffin well. A medium cookie scoop works well for this.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- Let cool 15 minutes before running using a small spoon to loosen the edges and scoop the puffs from the muffin tin.
- Serve with the ranch dip.
To make the ranch dip
- While the potatoes are baking, whisk together the sour cream, milk, ranch, and chives. Set aside for serving.
Notes
- We use leftover mashed potatoes from our Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes for this recipe. You can also purchase refrigerated mashed potatoes to use. You'll want a 24 ounce container.
- Season your mashed potatoes with chives or extra ranch seasoning, if you like.
