Halloween Skull Roasted Red Potatoes are creepy and delicious roasted potatoes shaped like mini skulls, perfect for a spooky-themed dinner or Halloween party. Seasoned with garlic, herbs, and spices, they’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs red potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary or thyme, finely chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Nonstick cooking spray (for molds)
  • Optional: 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Lightly spray a skull-shaped silicone mold with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the diced red potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, rosemary or thyme, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Spoon the seasoned potatoes into each skull cavity, pressing down to pack them tightly.
  5. Place the mold on a baking sheet for stability and bake for 30–35 minutes or until the potatoes are golden and tender.
  6. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5–10 minutes before carefully unmolding the potato skulls onto a serving platter.
  7. Optional: Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese and extra herbs before serving.

Notes

Use plenty of nonstick spray to ensure easy release from the mold.Let the potatoes cool slightly before unmolding to maintain their shape.Mix in cheese, garlic, or spices to customize the flavor.Serve with dipping sauces like spicy aioli or herbed yogurt for extra fun.Best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated in the oven or air fryer.
