Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into large chunks.
Place the potatoes in a large pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth and let them cool slightly.
Add the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Stir to combine evenly.
Add the coconut flour to the mixture a little at a time while mixing until the potatoes form a dough-like consistency.
Take small portions of the potato mixture (about 2 tablespoons each) and roll them into balls.
Flatten each ball slightly to form a disk and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Using a straw or the end of a wooden spoon, poke two holes for the eyes, then use a small spoon to carve a smile for the mouth.
Brush the smiley face potatoes lightly with a bit more olive oil for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden and crispy.
Serve warm and enjoy your Whole30 Smiley Face Potatoes!
