How to Make Mashed Potato Muffins

  1. Peel and cut 2 lbs of potatoes into 1-inch chunks.
  2. In a large pot, bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, cover, and cook until tender (about 20 minutes). Drain well and return the potatoes to the pot.
  3. Mash the potatoes until smooth and fluffy. You should have approximately 5 cups of mashed potatoes.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons of melted butter and let cool for 5 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, in a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
  6. Add 1 cup of sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup of chopped onions, and 2 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until all liquid evaporates (6-8 minutes).
  7. Add the sautéed vegetables, 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 large eggs, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper to the mashed potatoes.
  8. Stir until the mixture is well combined and smooth.
  9. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  10. Spoon the potato mixture evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  11. Bake in the preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  12. Let the muffins stand in the pan for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm.
