Potato pancakes are so good when served with some applesauce. Last week I made sauerbraten and I prepared these Perkins Potato Pancakes with it. I should have doubled the recipe, because the potato pancakes were gone in seconds!

Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole milk
4 eggs
3 tablespoons butter, melted
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced onion
4 shredded fresh potatoes -or-
2 1/2 cups frozen hash browns (defrosted)

Directions:
Combine all of the ingredients, except for the potatoes, in a large mixing bowl. Beat by hand until smooth. Add the potatoes to the batter and mix by hand until the potatoes are combined. Let the batter rest while you preheat a skillet to about medium heat. Grease the pan with some butter.
Ladle 1/4 cup scoops of batter into the pan. Cook as many at a time as will fit comfortably into your pan. Cook each pancake for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side until brown.
