Smashed Potatoes

Smashed Potatoes are one of the many ways that you can prepare potatoes– it seems the possibilities are endless– and we really love them! They’re a mix of twice baked potatoes and mashed potatoes: you cook them twice, they’re crisp on the outside, but soft and fluffy on the inside!

Adding our Fresh Churned Garlic Butter and Parmesan cheese is a no-brainer. Both of these ingredients pair really well with the taters.

How to Smash Potatoes

This is the fun part of the recipe! To start, boil your yellow potatoes until tender. Drain them, and put them on a baking sheet.

Use the bottom of a jar or glass to flatten the potatoes into patties! It’s so much fun! Just make sure that your “patties” are flattened about the same amount. Thinner ones will cook faster than thicker ones.

Once your potatoes are smashed, brush them with some melted Garlic Butter. Be as generous as you want; you can never have too much garlic butter. Add some salt and pepper, if necessary and to your taste. Sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top of each potato, and then bake!

YUM!

The cheese and skin of the potato will get crispy, leaving the insides soft and delicious!

Enjoy!
