  1. Cut
    • Roth Creamy Havarti cheese
    • Mashed potatoes

    Cut the Havarti cheese block into 48 even cubes. Reserve 24 cubes for a cheese board and set aside the remaining 24 cubes for the potato balls.

  2. Whisk
    • large egg
    • panko bread crumbs
    • all-purpose flour

    Whisk the large egg in one small bowl. Place the panko bread crumbs in a second small bowl and the all-purpose flour in a third small bowl.

  3. Scoop
    • mashed potatoes
    • Roth Creamy Havarti cheese

    Scoop about 1 1/2 tablespoons of chilled mashed potatoes. Flatten the portion in your hand and place 1 Havarti cube in the center.

  4. Roll
    • mashed potatoes
    • Roth Creamy Havarti cheese
    • all-purpose flour

    Seal the mashed potatoes completely around the cheese. Roll into a smooth ball, then coat the ball lightly in all-purpose flour.

  5. Arrange
    • mashed potatoes
    • Roth Creamy Havarti cheese
    • all-purpose flour

    Repeat the stuffing and flour-coating process with the remaining mashed potatoes and 23 Havarti cubes. Arrange the coated potato balls on a clean surface.

  6. Preheat
    • avocado oil spray

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Spray both mini muffin tins lightly with avocado oil spray.

  7. Drain
    • large egg
    • Mashed potatoes
    • Flour

    Use a fork to dip each flour-coated potato ball into the whisked egg. Lift it out and allow excess egg to drain back into the bowl.

  8. Transfer
    • panko bread crumbs
    • Egg

    Transfer each egg-coated ball to the panko bread crumbs. Turn it until all sides are fully coated with breadcrumbs.

  9. Place
    • Mashed potatoes

    Place one breaded potato ball into each greased mini muffin cup. Keep the balls in separate cups so they retain their round shape.

  10. Bake

    Bake at 400°F (205°C) for 15 minutes. Bake until the coating is golden brown and crisp.

  11. Cool
    • Mashed potatoes
