Ingredients
- 1 lb. baby Yukon Gold potatoes
- 5 T Garlic Better Butter
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- ¾ cup grated Parmesan
- Fresh chopped parsley, to garnish
Directions
- Preheat the oven – Get it up to 425°F. These potatoes are about to get crispy and golden.
- Cook the potatoes – Place the baby Yukon Gold potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring it to a boil. Let them simmer for about 15 minutes, or until they’re nice and tender. Drain the potatoes, then arrange them on a baking sheet.
- Smash them up – Grab the bottom of a jar or glass, and smash the potatoes flat into little patties. The more rustic, the better.
- Garlic butter time – Brush those smashed potatoes generously with melted Garlic Better Butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then top with a generous sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
- Bake to golden perfection – Pop them in the oven at 425°F for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re crispy and golden brown.
- Garnish and serve – Once they’re out of the oven, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for that final touch. Serve immediately, and get ready to watch them disappear.
