Potato Muffins: Savory, Fluffy Comfort in Every Bite (Page 2 ) | May 30, 2025

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • ½ cup (120ml) milk (or unsweetened almond milk)
  • ¼ cup (60g) melted butter (or olive oil)

Flavor Boosters (Optional)

  • ½ cup (50g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp chopped chives or green onions
  • ¼ cup (30g) cooked, crumbled bacon
  • 1 tsp garlic powder or ½ tsp smoked paprika

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep the Potatoes

  • Use cooled mashed potatoes (warm potatoes may melt the butter too quickly).
  • For extra fluffiness, whip potatoeswith a fork to remove lumps.

Pro Tip: Leftover garlic/herb mashed potatoes add fantastic flavor!

2. Mix Dry & Wet Separately

  • Dry bowl: Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Wet bowl: Combine eggs, milk, and melted butter.

3. Combine Gently

  • Fold wet ingredients into dry until just combined (overmixing = dense muffins).
  • Gently stir in mashed potatoes and any add-ins (cheese, herbs, etc.).
