Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Boil 2 lbs peeled and cubed potatoes in salted water for 20-25 minutes until tender, then drain and mash until smooth, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water.
- Step 2: In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes with 2 cups chopped kale, 1 cup shredded cheddar, 2 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Gradually add reserved potato water and 3 tbsp melted butter, mixing until a cohesive dough forms.
- Step 3: On a floured surface, roll dough into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Cut into 8 wedges and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush tops with 1 tbsp olive oil.
- Step 4: Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and crispy around the edges — check after 15 minutes to prevent over-browning.
