Prepare the Mashed Potatoes: If you don’t already have mashed potatoes, prepare them ahead of time and allow them to cool and firm up in the fridge.
Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the chilled mashed potatoes, shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, beaten egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
Form the Potato Balls: Scoop out about 1 tablespoon of the potato mixture and roll it into a ball. Repeat this process until all the mixture is used.
Coat the Potato Balls: Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Gently roll each mashed potato ball in the breadcrumbs, making sure it’s evenly coated.
Air Fry the Potato Balls: Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the potato balls with cooking spray or drizzle a little olive oil on top. Place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the balls are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Serve: Let the potato balls cool for a few minutes, then serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ranch or marinara.
