My hubby can’t get enough of these balls! Can just easily pop 5 in his mouth!

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, mix together the mashed potatoes, grated cheddar cheese, chopped chives, crumbled bacon, beaten egg, salt, and pepper until well combined.

Form the mixture into small balls, about the size of a golf ball, and roll each ball in the breadcrumbs to coat evenly.

Place the potato balls on the prepared baking sheet and lightly spray them with olive oil.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
