Potato pancakes

My sister in law said that they sometimes use sour cream and apple sauce on theirs. I just ate mine plain they were that good.

Those sound yummy! I think that green pancakes would be a cute idea for St. Patty's Day.

I made some this morning using shredded frozen hashed browns that I thawed and mixed with eggs, salt, pepper, shredded onion and a little flour. They were SOOO good. I did use apple sauce and sour cream, but that's because I've eaten them that way before. But, they were good without it, too. I have batter left over to make more tomorrow. Maybe I should have added some green food coloring for St. Patrick's Day?? LOL

I have never tried to make the batter smooth. I might try it that way sometime.

thank you for BR. Reminded me I haven't made this in a while. \Getting cooler outside and seems a good time to do so.

I don't use mashed potatoes. I shred the potatoes with a cheese grater. Here is a recipe from the Betty Crocker website. Potato Pancakes 2 eggs 1/4 cup milk 2 cups finely shredded uncooked potatoes, well drained 1/4 cup Original Bisquick® mix 2 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon butter or margarine 1. Beat eggs in medium bowl with hand beater until fluffy. Stir in milk, potatoes, Bisquick mix, onions and salt. Melt butter in 10-inch skillet. 2. Drop dough by tablespoonfuls into skillet. 3. Cook about 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. (Total time will vary; cook or bake time is per batch.)

I put ground flax in my regular pancakes, but I did not think to put it in these this morning. I will have to keep that in mind for next time. Thanks for the idea.

You are second person to mention a blender. I am going to have to try them this way.

I will definitely have to search on Oktoberfest and look at the recipe you shared. The onions in them sound good. I did not use onions, but I love them.
