One of the recipes my mom used for frugality.

Categories     Potatoes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons finely chopped onion
1/3 cup butter
4 cups cooked mashed potatoes
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup flour

Steps:

  • 1. Cook onion in pan in about half of the butter until onion is translucent. Remove onion from pan with a slotted spoon, allowing the melted butter and pan drippings to remain in the pan. Combine onion, mashed potatoes and egg. Sprinkle with flour. Add remaining butter to pan and heat to medium/high heat. Add potato pancakes and cook about 5 minutes each side until browned. Leftover mashed potatoes take on the consistency of concrete when refrigerated and you never know what to do with them. They are actually very good is you just warm them up and add a little more milk and/ or butter. But now you have a second option.

These were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more salt and pepper to the batter.

I've made these pancakes several times now and they're always a hit! They're so easy to make and you can really customize them to your own taste. I love adding different herbs and spices to the batter.

These were a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes! I added some chopped bacon and cheese to the batter, and they were delicious. I served them with sour cream and applesauce, and it was a perfect comfort food meal.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pancakes turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked them.

Overall, I thought these pancakes were pretty good. They were easy to make and had a nice flavor. I would definitely make them again, but I might try adding some different seasonings to the batter next time.

These were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less oil when cooking them.

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had added some more seasonings to the batter. Maybe some garlic powder or onion powder would have helped.

I've been making these pancakes for years and they're always a crowd-pleaser. They're so easy to make and you can use up leftover mashed potatoes, which is always a bonus. I like to serve them with a dollop of sour cream and some chives on top.

These pancakes were so good! I love how versatile they are - you can add in whatever spices or herbs you like. I made a batch with rosemary and garlic, and another with smoked paprika and chili powder. Both were delicious!
