Instructions
- Whisk together the flour, salt, black pepper, and baking powder.
- Mix the two types of potatoes, the egg and cream.
- Stir in the flour mixture. The mixture should be thick, but able to spread out to cook into a patty. Add more cream if needed. (this all depends on the moisture in the mashed potatoes and shredded ones. You may need to add more.)
- Place the butter into a large skillet and melt over medium-high heat.
- Once the butter is hot, scoop mounds of the potato batter into the pan, spreading it lightly into flat circles around 1/3 of an inch thick
- Fry the one side of the patty for 2-3 minutes until well browned on the bottom, then flip.
- Cook another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cook through completely. Add more butter if needed.
- There is egg in the mixture so make sure they are cooked through.
- Serve hot with sour cream or with melted butter on top.
Notes
- to make these into crepes, add cream, little by little, until the mixture is thinner, and will pool out into a crepe more than a pancake.
