Description
Duchess potatoes are a fun and delicious way to use up leftover Southern-style mashed potatoes after the holidays or any Southern get-together. They piped onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper with a piping tip and oven-baked for 20 minutes. These fluffy potatoes are made with minimal ingredients and turn leftovers into a beautifully golden, crispy side.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 Cup Leftover Mashed Potatoes
- 1 Egg
- 1/2 Cup Flour
- 1/4 Teaspoon Salt
- Optional: 1/2 Cup Finely Shredded Cheddar Cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, egg, flour, and salt. (If adding cheese, add it here). Mix the batter with a spatula well.
- Transfer the potato mixture to a piping bag fitted with a large star or round piping tip (one such as the Wilton 1M star tip).
- Pipe the mixture into small swirls or mounds onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crisp.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes and then serve!
Notes
- To make these even more over the top, after they come out of the oven, lightly brush them with some melted butter, a sprinkle of salt and freshly cracked black pepper, and some chopped chives!
