Baked Potato Balls

FAQ

Can I make these potato balls gluten-free?

Yes! Substitute the flour and breadcrumbs with gluten-free alternatives. Panko-style gluten-free breadcrumbs work especially well for that classic crunch.

What’s the best way to ensure the balls don’t fall apart?

Chilling the potato balls after forming them helps hold their shape. Also, using cold mashed potatoes and a beaten egg will keep the mixture together.

Can I freeze the potato balls?

Absolutely! Freeze them unbaked in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. When ready to enjoy, bake from frozen at 400°F for about 30-35 minutes.

What are some fun flavor variations?

Try adding finely chopped jalapeños for a spicy kick, mixing in some cooked crumbled sausage for heartiness, or adding finely diced bell peppers for a hint of sweetness and color.
