Potato Cheddar Chive Bakes

This recipe blends the creamy goodness of cheddar cheese with the freshness of chives and the heartiness of potatoes, creating a heavenly combination that is sure to please your taste buds.

Ingredients

2 cups of mashed potatoes
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1/4 cup sour cream
1 egg
1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
Oil for frying (or you can bake them!)

Instructions

Begin by preparing your mashed potatoes. You can either use leftover mashed potatoes or make a fresh batch by boiling peeled potatoes until soft, then mashing with a bit of butter and milk.
In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped chives, garlic powder, black pepper, salt, sour cream, and the egg. Mix everything together until well combined.
Once your mixture is ready, take a scoop of the mixture and shape it into small patties or bakes, about the size of your palm.
Now, roll each patty in breadcrumbs until fully coated. This will add a wonderful crunch to your bakes!
If you choose to fry them, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the bakes in the hot oil and cook until golden brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side.
If you prefer to bake them, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the bakes on a greased baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden and crispy.
Once done, remove them from the heat and let them cool slightly. Serve warm, and enjoy your homemade Potato Cheddar Chive Bakes!

These tasty bites are perfect for any occasion. Whether you’re hosting a gathering or simply want a special treat for yourself, these bakes will not disappoint. Enjoy them with a side of marinara or your favorite dipping sauce, and savor every bite!
