Cheesy Mashed Potato Muffins with eggs

How to Make Them

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin well.
2. Mix the base: In a bowl, combine mashed potatoes with shredded cheese, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper.
3. Scoop and shape: Spoon the mashed potato mixture into each muffin cup, pressing gently to form a well in the center.
4. Add eggs: Crack one egg into each well (or pour in whisked eggs for a quiche-like texture).
5. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the eggs are set and the tops are golden and slightly crispy.
6. Cool slightly before removing from the tin. Garnish with extra herbs or a sprinkle of cheese if desired.
