Ingredients
- 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes cubed, about 5-6 medium potatoes
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 3 slices bacon cooked, diced
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese shredded
- 2 tbsp scallions green ends, diced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400º F and spray a square baking dish with non-stick spray.
- Put potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 tbsp salt to water. Put on stove on high heat and bring to a boil. Boil for 20 minutes or until fork tender.2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
- While potatoes are boiling, fry bacon (on stove or in air fryer). I recommend you slightly undercook bacon as it will continue cooking in oven. When done, set aside on paper towels to cool and then rough chop into 1/2" pieces.3 slices bacon

- Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Add in the cream and butter.1/4 cup butter, 1/3 cup heavy cream
- Mash by hand until well blended using a potato masher. It’s fine to have some chunks. Using a hand mixer might seem easier - but you can easily go from perfect to gluey in about 3 seconds. Mashing by hand is always my preference!
- Season with salt and pepper.1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper
- Transfer the mash to a baking dish then top with shredded cheese and chopped bacon crumbles.1 cup Cheddar cheese
- Bake for 10 minutes at 400F or until cheese is melted.
