💰Cheaper: crushed crackers

Ground oats are healthier, while crushed crackers can be more economical.

Boil potatoes until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Drain and let cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes in a bowl until smooth.

Add shredded cheddar cheese, flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes.

Mix until all ingredients are well combined.

Form the mixture into sticks or small logs.

Dip each stick into beaten eggs, coating evenly.

Roll the egg-coated sticks in breadcrumbs until fully covered.

Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the sticks in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove sticks and drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with parsley before serving.
