Amazingly crisp-tender potatoes with a Dijon-herb crust – a side dish so good, you’ll want to have it for every single meal!
Remember when I said how I hated mustard as a child? Well, I’m pretty much putting it on everything, especially these potatoes.
Now there’s a double dose of mustard here using both Dijon and whole grain mustard along with just 2 teaspoons of honey for that hint of sweetness, giving the potatoes that perfect balance of sweet and savory goodness.
Then these babies get baked in a 425 degree F oven, letting that mustard glaze on top form into a beautiful, epic crust. Now if I can just get this kind of crust on all my veggies!

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
2. In a large pot of boiling water, cook potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes; drain well.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, garlic, honey, thyme and rosemary; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
4. Place potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet. Using a potato masher or fork, carefully smash the potatoes until flattened but still in one piece. Brush each potato with mustard mixture.
5. Place into oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
6. Serve immediately.
