Potato Pancakes

Perfect for breakfast or as a side dish!

Potato Pancakes

INGREDIENTS

8 medium red potatoes, with peel, shredded

1 large sweet onion, minced

3 eggs, lightly beaten

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 tablespoon dried rosemary

1 tablespoon salt

2 teaspoons ground black pepper

1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

DIRECTIONS

In a large bowl, mix the red potatoes, onion, eggs, flour, baking powder, rosemary, salt, pepper, and lime juice.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Scoop about 2/3 cup at a time of the potato mixture into the skillet, and press down with a spatula into a pancake shape. Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
