These might only be half as tall as Tater Tots®, but personally I think they're twice as good! With just a handful of ingredients and no messy stovetop frying, get ready to enjoy these crispy, caramelized potato pancake poppers. Pipe sour cream on top and sprinkle with chives to serve, or arrange on a platter and serve alongside an amazing dip, like a garlicky pesto aioli. They also make for truly fantastic breakfast potatoes to serve with bacon and eggs.

Ingredients

  • butter: 3 Tbsp (melted)
  • russet potatoes: 2 piece (peeled)
  • garlic powder: 0.5 Tbsp
  • ½ teaspoons kosher salt: 1 piece
  • ground black pepper: 0.25 tsp
  • pinch cayenne pepper: 1 piece (to taste)
  • olive oil: 1 Tbsp
  • all-purpose flour: 1 Tbsp
  • finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese: 0.5 cup

  1. Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Very generously brush melted butter into the bottom and sides of 24 mini muffin cups. Place the tin(s) on a baking sheet and set aside until needed. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR

  2. Add cold water to a large bowl until 1/3 full. Grate potatoes into the cold water, then fill the bowl almost to the top with more cold water. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR

  3. Swish the potatoes around with your hands to rinse off the starch, then pour off most of the water and refill with more cold water. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR

  4. Continue this process until the water runs almost clear. Pour potatoes into a colander and let drain for a few minutes. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR

  6. Transfer potatoes to a clean bowl and add garlic powder, salt, pepper, cayenne, and olive oil. Sprinkle flour over top, then add Parmigiano-Reggiano. Mix and toss gently with your hands until thoroughly combined and mixture feels damp. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR

  7. Grab potato mixture from the bottom of the bowl to get as much moisture as possible, and fill the prepared muffin cups. It's okay if the mixture comes up above the pan by 1/2 to 1 inch. ALLRECIPES / MADHUMITA SATHISHKUMAR
