Smashed Tater Tots
Perfectly crispy, ideal for dipping!
- ½ 32 oz. bag standard-sized frozen tater tots--not the minis or disc-shaped ones
Preheat the oven to 400°. Cover a sheet pan with parchment and add the frozen tater tots in a single layer. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and smash each tater tot using the bottom of a glass. After smashing, the tots should be about ¼ inch thick.
After all the tots are smashed, return to the oven for 20 minutes. Allow them to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before serving.
