Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 cup creamy mashed potatoes (prepared)
• Ketchup, for serving

How to Make Savory Pancakes with Mashed Potatoes

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
2. In another bowl, combine the milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix well until combined.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with cooking spray or a bit of butter.
5. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
6. Remove the pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining batter.
7. Serve the pancakes with a generous side of creamy mashed potatoes and drizzle with ketchup for dipping.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your skillet is adequately heated before adding the batter to achieve a perfect golden-brown finish.
• Don’t overmix the batter; this will keep your pancakes light and fluffy.
• If your mashed potatoes are too thick, add a splash of milk to achieve a creamy consistency.

Easy Variations

• Add chopped herbs like chives or parsley to the batter for an extra flavor boost.
• Mix in shredded cheese or cooked bacon bits for a savory twist.
• Substitute buttermilk for regular milk for a richer flavor.

What to Serve With It

• A side of crispy bacon or sausage links
• A fresh fruit salad for a refreshing contrast
• Scrambled eggs for added protein
• Sautéed greens for a nutritious touch
