Using instant potato flakes and an instant pancake mix for my starter, I'm always ready for my B-and-B guests. Works great if you're cooking for 2 or 20. Great by themselves -- or top with bacon, poached egg, and cheese (we like applesauce on the side, also.) Great finger food, just fold it over a slice of cheese or bacon.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup instant mashed potato flakes
1/3 cup complete dry pancake mix
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup skim milk
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
Directions:
1. Stir together the potato flakes, pancake mix, onion, Cheddar cheese, milk, egg, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper in a bowl until well combined.
2. Grease a griddle or large skillet, and place over medium heat. Drop pancakes, 1/4 cup at a time, onto the hot griddle, and cook until the edges look dry and 1 bubble appears in the center, about 3 minutes. Flip the pancakes, and cook until browned on the other side, about 3 more minutes.
