Broccoli Mashed Potato Puffs
Leftover mashed potato puffs made with broccoli florets and cheddar cheese.
- 2 cup mashed potato leftover
- broccoli florets cooked
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese grated
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup Corn Flake Crumbs
- 1/2 cup Panko Bread Crumbs
- 2 cloves crushed/minced garlic
- 2 scallions scallions, chopped reserve some of the green for garnish
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F.
Mix together all the ingredients except the breadcrumbs.
Place the breadcrumbs and corn flake crumbs into a shallow bowl and mix together. Then line a baking sheet with parchment paper and begin to roll about a tablespoon of the mixture into a ball and then into the breadcrumb/cornflake mixture and place on baking sheet. Continue until there is no more mashed potato mixture. Place pan in refrigerator for about a 1/2 hour to chill the puffs.
When ready to bake, remove from refrigerator and bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes. Garnish with leftover scallions.
NOTE: I like to spray the puffs with a little olive oil before i bake them but you do not have to do this step.
