Perfect Potato Pancakes Recipe

Ingredients:

• 4 cups of chilled mashed potatoes
• 5 slices of bacon
• 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
• 2 eggs, well beaten
• 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:

1. In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until it’s evenly browned and crispy, which should take about 10 minutes. Remember to turn the slices occasionally.
2. Once the bacon is cooked, remove it from the skillet and crumble it. Set aside, but keep the bacon drippings in the skillet.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, beaten eggs, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese until well mixed.
4. Shape the mixture into 8 evenly sized patties.
5. Heat the bacon drippings in the skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry the potato patties in the drippings until they’re crisp and golden brown on each side, which usually takes about 4 minutes per side.
6. Once cooked, serve and enjoy these delightful potato pancakes!
