Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 1 cup mashed potatoes
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper (optional)
• 1 tablespoon butter

Recipe

• 1 place potatoes in a batter bowl. add 1/2 cup flour and 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk and salt and pepper if you are using. mix together to make a pouring consistency, like a sweet buttermilk-type pancake batter. you can adjust the milk and flour to make the pancake thicker or thinner to your preference. melt the butter in a 8" frying pan (an omelet pan works nicely) over medium heat. pour enough mixture just to cover the bottom of the pan. cook for approximately 5 minutes, flip and cook for an additional 5 minutes for thinner pancakes. if you like a thicker pancake, cooking may take a minute or two longer per side. remove from pan and place fillings in the center, roll up and keep heated while preparing the rest.
