How to Make Breakfast Potato Pancakes

  1. In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups shredded hash brown potatoes, 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion, 1 large egg, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon dried dill weed, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Gently mix until just combined.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  3. Drop 1/2 cup of the potato mixture into the hot skillet for each pancake. Use a spatula to gently flatten each portion into a 4-inch pancake.
  4. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
  5. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  6. Serve immediately with a dollop of sour cream or your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
