Crispy roast potatoes with 5 ingredients and made in a muffin tin. A simple, yet flavorful roasted potato recipe – a family favorite that is always a hit!
Notes:
The potatoes will stick more together if they are jammed into fewer muffin cup spots. If they’re loosely packed into more spots they’re more likely to separate when removed from the muffin tin.
