Ingredients

• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.25 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Green onions (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 0 Sour cream (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into large chunks for quicker cooking.

Step 2

Boil the potato chunks in a large pot of salted water until tender, about 12-15 minutes. Drain well and mash until smooth. Allow the mashed potatoes to cool slightly.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped green onions. Mix until a smooth, scoopable batter forms.

Step 4

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.

Step 5

Using a scoop or spoon, drop approximately 1/4 cup of the potato mixture onto the skillet for each pancake. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon to form a pancake shape.

Step 6

Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust heat as necessary to avoid burning.

Step 7

Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter and olive oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 8

Serve the potato pancakes warm with a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
