These mashed potato croquettes have a crispy, crunchy exterior with a soft inside and an ooey-gooey, melted cheese surprise in the center. A great use for leftover mashed potatoes, they're tasty on their own, or you can dip them in a creamy sour cream-based dipping sauce, tomato sauce or extra-virgin olive oil with plenty of fresh herbs.

Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine mashed potatoes, scallion and pepper in a medium bowl. Scoop the mixture evenly into 10 balls (3 to 4 tablespoons each) using a 1 1/2-inch cookie scoop or serving spoon. Using your thumb, create an indentation in each ball; place a cube of cheese in each indentation and use your hands to shape the mixture back around the cheese cube so it's centered in the middle of the mashed potato ball. Place flour in a shallow dish. Whisk together egg and water in a separate shallow dish. Stir breadcrumbs and oil together in a third shallow dish. Working in batches, roll the croquettes in the flour, shaking off excess; dip in the egg mixture, then dredge in the breadcrumb mixture. Place the croquettes 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Coat the croquettes evenly with cooking spray. Bake until golden brown and crispy, 12 to 15 minutes. Let stand for 3 minutes before serving. Equipment Parchment paper Tip To make fine fresh breadcrumbs, tear 1 slice whole-wheat bread into pieces and pulse in a food processor until fine crumbs form.
