Instructions:
-
Prepare Mashed Potatoes:
- Make mashed potatoes according to the package directions for 7-8 servings. Ensure the consistency is smooth and creamy.
-
Combine Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the prepared mashed potatoes, garlic powder, eggs, Parmesan cheese, and 1 cup of mozzarella cheese until well combined. The mixture should be creamy and flavorful.
-
Assemble Pie:
- Pile the mashed potato mixture into a 9-inch deep dish pie plate, spreading it evenly to create a smooth surface.
-
Add Cheese Topping:
- Sprinkle the top of the pie with the remaining 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, ensuring even coverage. This will create a cheesy crust that adds extra flavor and texture to the dish.
-
Final Touch:
- For a pop of color and added flavor, sprinkle the top of the pie with a dash of paprika. This will give the pie a beautiful golden hue when baked.
-
Bake:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled pie in the preheated oven and bake until the top is golden brown and the pie is puffy, approximately 45 minutes. Keep an eye on it to prevent over-browning.
-
Serve:
- Once baked to perfection, remove the Mashed Potato Pie from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness with your loved ones.
