Small Potatoes Recipes FAQs
They are a special variety of potatoes that are grown to be small! In fact, they are also called baby potatoes. They come in a variety of colors similar to fingerling potatoes and cook quickly thanks to their tiny size. What we love most about these baby potatoes is that they are always so smooth and delicious – creamer is a good name for them, for how creamy they are!
There’s no need to peel creamer potatoes! The skin is soft and smooth, and when you’re making garlic butter potatoes roasted in the oven, it gives them that perfect crisp.

Best Way to Store Small Potatoes
- Make sure your little potatoes are free of any blemishes; those will not last as long.
- Add them to a mesh or paper bag, or a cardboard box, so they can breathe well. Do not store them in plastic bags.
- Store in a cool location for best results, but do not store potatoes in the fridge.
- Don’t wash your baby potatoes until you’re ready to cook with them, and make sure not to store them with other vegetables or fruit.
Uncooked garlic butter potatoes last for about 2 weeks when stored correctly.

Thanks so much, Tammy!
JOAN says
I am unsure how to rate this recipe. The flavor was so promising but mine were already overbrowned when I checked them after 40 minutes at only 400F. I will definitely make them again but will begin checking after 25 minutes at 400F. Thanks!
Em Beitel says
Thank you Joan! We haven’t experienced that but all ovens are different, so checking after 25 minutes sounds like a great plan. We’re glad you enjoyed them!
Clark Blasingame says
I baked mine for 45 minutes at 400 so you’re right about ovens being different. They were delicious. I combined them to make a ground beef hash.
Em Beitel says
That sounds delicious, Clark! Thank you for your comment – we’re so glad you tried them!
