FAQ:
Can I use freshly made mashed potatoes?
Yes, but it's best if they're slightly cooled and firm. This helps the muffins hold their shape better.
Are these muffins gluten-free?
Not as written, but you can substitute a gluten-free flour blend to make them gluten-free.
Can I freeze mashed potato muffins?
Yes, let them cool completely, then freeze in an airtight container for up to one month. Reheat from frozen at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes.
What if my mashed potatoes are very creamy or loose?
Add a bit more flour (1–2 tablespoons) to thicken the mixture before baking.
