Mashed Potato Pancakes - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for this recipe?

Yes, you can substitute sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter flavor. The texture may be a bit softer, so you might need to adjust the flour quantity for binding.

How long can I store leftover mashed potato pancakes?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to maintain crispiness.

Can I make these pancakes gluten-free?

Yes, replace the regular flour with a gluten-free alternative like almond flour or a gluten-free all-purpose blend for similar results.

What’s the best way to reheat these pancakes to keep them crispy?

For best results, reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in a toaster oven until warmed through. Avoid microwaving, as it can make them soggy.

Can I freeze these potato pancakes for later use?

Yes, freeze them on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag. They’ll keep for up to 2 months. Reheat from frozen in a skillet or oven.

What dipping sauces pair well with mashed potato pancakes?

Try sour cream, applesauce, or a garlic aioli for dipping. A spicy Sriracha mayo or chutney also works wonderfully.

Can I make these pancakes without eggs for a vegan version?

Yes, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 2.5 tbsp water) or a store-bought egg substitute for a vegan-friendly option.

How can I make these pancakes crispier?

For extra crispiness, press the patties thinner before frying and ensure the pan is well-heated with a bit of oil or butter before adding them.
