My mother used to used left over mashed potatoes to make these potato pancakes the next night for supper. She fried hers and they were quite delicious. However, baking is less messy.

This recipe makes great potato pancakes! My family loves potato pancakes but I hate to fry them. The only thing I changed in the recipe was to substitute 2 Tbs dried minced onions, reconstituted in 1/4 c of water, then drained. Mine didn't brown as much as the ones pictured, but were still crispy and very tasty!

    My entire family thought these were wonderful. I liked them because not only did they taste good, but once in the oven you could forget about them. Thanks for the recipe.

    I had leftover mashed potatoes after my Thanksgiving dinner and was looking for something different to do with them other than just fry them up; this was the perfect solution for the day-after-Thanksgiving dinner. These were wonderful! They were so easy to prepare, and I like that they are baked rather than fried. I used my potato masher to combine all the ingredients, as I wanted to make sure no lumps of cold mashed potatoes remained. Unfortunately, I had to omit the onions (or else my son wouldn't have eaten them), but I sauted two large cloves of garlic as a substitute. I will definitely make these again!

    AWESOME - even better cold. Did not do the egg wash as batter seemed a bit runny - could not shape into rounds but rather just spooned right onto the pan. Next time will add more flour I guess to make more firm. Did not flip and bottoms nice brown but top surface did not brown probably from omitting the egg wash! Held together great when removed from pan. Great breakfast munchie so would be great lunch appetizer. Definitely Definitely a make again.
