Buttermilk Bacon Whipped Potatoes
Since I’m going not-so-healthy with the bacon in this recipe, I compensated by using less butter than traditional whipped potatoes call for and letting most of the creaminess come from tangy, low fat buttermilk. It’s never fun being super healthy and depriving yourself on the holidays, so try switching things up on your crowd with this irresistible, velvety side dish! It will knock everyone’s socks off!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Place the chopped potatoes and salt in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 5-10 minutes.
- Step 2
While the potatoes are cooking, lay the bacon in a skillet over low heat and cook until crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel to blot out any excess grease, then chop or crumble into small pieces.
- Step 3
Heat the buttermilk and butter in a saucepan until warm and the butter is melted.
- Step 4
Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and whip with an electric mixer until fluffy and creamy adding more buttermilk if needed.
