How to make Potato Muffins
Start by washing the potatoes very well, then place them inside the slightly oiled muffin tin.
Bake in the oven at 356°F for about 15-20 minutes, do a toothpick test before taking them out of the oven, they should be nice and soft but not too “mushy.”
Take them out of the oven and with a small liqueur glass press firmly in the center, then season with tomato sauce, ham, and cheeses.
Return to the oven in grill mode for about 5-6 minutes or until the cheese has completely melted.
Storage and variations
The muffins can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container until the next day. You can substitute cooked ham with speck or you can add a teaspoon of béchamel.
