Loaded Mashed Potato Bombs Recipes

LOADED MASHED POTATO BOMBS RECIPE

Steps:

• First cook your mashed potatoes and let cool down.
• Once cooled, mix your mashed potatoes with 1 cup bacon and 1 cup shredded cheddar. Now shape your mixture into 1 inch balls.
• Roll your 1 inch balls into a slightly beaten egg mixture and then add to bread crumbs. Coat on all sides.
• Place your finished ball on parchment paper (laid on cookie sheet) and toss in freezer for approximately 10-15 minutes to set.
• Now using your skillet or fryer, heat 1 inch of oil to 375 degrees. If you are working with a skillet over the stove, medium-high heat works best.
• Add a few of your balls to the fryer at a time for approximately 3 minutes, turning until a nice crispy brown. Remove carefully and lay on a napkin or paper plate to soak up grease.
• Serve immediately with our Sour Cream and Garlic Butter Dipping sauce
