Description

Delicious crispy baby Yukon Gold potatoes, seasoned with olive oil, herbs, and spices, baked to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 baby Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
  • optional favorite herbs (rosemary, dill, Parisien)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F.
  2. Steam or boil the potatoes until tender. (Steaming is my preference.)
  3. Spray a foil-lined baking sheet with nonstick spray.
  4. Drizzle the sheet pan with olive oil.
  5. Place the cooked and dried potatoes on the baking sheet and leave 2 inches between potatoes.
  6. Use a potato masher and press gently but firmly on each potato until flattened.
  7. Drizzle more olive oil over the potatoes.
  8. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Sprinkle with favorite herbs like thyme, rosemary or Parisien.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden and crispy on the bottom.

Notes

  • Steaming the potatoes helps maintain their moisture for a better texture.
  • Feel free to mix and match herbs according to your preference.
