okay but after trying these french onion smashed potatoes, i never want to eat potatoes any other way 😂 they are the ultimate finger food — make them as a side dish or as a game day appetizer 🥔🧅 i brought these over for kyle’s family to try and they were all raving about them! although they take a little time, they’re sooo worth it 🫶 salty, cheesy, crispy gooooodness…obsessed! RECIPE (gluten free): -1 lb baby potatoes (i really like using the teeny tiny potatoes from trader joe’s) -olive oil -salt + pepper -2 onions, sliced into strips -1/2 cup broth (i used @drkellyannpetrucci french onion bone broth) -3 sprigs of fresh thyme, stems removed + more to top -4 oz shredded low-moisture mozzarella -2 oz swiss cheese (about 2 slices) preheat oven to 390F. bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. once boiling, add potatoes and cook for about 15-20 minutes until fork tender (may take longer if you’re using bigger potatoes). drain and let them sit in the colander for 5 minutes. then, transfer potatoes to a large, greased baking sheet. smush them flat with the bottom of a cup or a fork. spray or brush with a little olive oil. season with salt + pepper. bake for 35 minutes. meanwhile, bring a large, high-sided pan to medium-high heat. once hot, add oil. then add the onion in several batches. after adding each handful of onion, stir and sauté for about 2 minutes. once all onion is added to pan, reduce heat to medium-low and season with salt + pepper. continue stirring every few minutes so they don’t burn. it will take about 20-30 more minutes for them to be caramelized. once onions are a deep, caramelized color, slowly add in the broth. stir. add in fresh thyme and season with more s+p as desired. let that simmer a little longer until the broth is mostly absorbed. place a small amount of the caramelized onions onto each smashed potato, then top with a little piece of swiss and some shredded mozzarella. change the oven to broil and broil for 5-7 minutes, until cheese is golden. top with more thyme leaves. enjoy! #caramelizedonions #frenchonionsoup #smashedpotatoes #fingerfood #gamedayfood #gamedaysnacks #cheesyfood #glutenfreerecipes #appetizers
