How to Make Potatoes With Everything Pancakes

  1. In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, flour, egg, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined; don't overmix.
  2. Chill the batter in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps the pancakes hold their shape and prevents them from becoming too greasy.
  3. Heat a lightly oiled griddle or large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  5. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings. Consider adding diced Canadian bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, chives, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
