Easy Cheddar Potato Cakes (Made With Instant Potatoes) image

If you looking for ways to use your instant potato flakes then here is a really great recipe! feel free to adjust all amounts to taste, this takes only minutes to make and my family loves them, don't try this recipe using regular mashed potatoes, it will not work --- this recipe was tested using Idahoan brand mashed potato flakes but I am sure any brand will work fine, servings is only estimated.

I followed the recipe exactly and my potato cakes turned out great. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I served them with sour cream and applesauce.

These potato cakes were a disappointment. They were bland and mushy. I won't be making them again.

These potato cakes were delicious! I used sharp cheddar cheese and they had a great flavor. I also added some chopped green onions for an extra bit of flavor.
