- Yields:
-
10-12 cakes
ingredients
- 3 cups prepared mashed potatoes
- 1 cup prepared stuffing (can be replaced with equal amounts of potatoes)
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup prepared dry biscuit mix (I used Bisquick)
- 1⁄2 cup dried bread, crumbs
- 1 cup french fried onions, crushed (The kind typically put on green bean casserole)
directions
- Mix cold mashed potatoes, cold stuffing, eggs, and biscut mix together until well blended. If you are adding anythign else such as meat or cheese this is the time to mix that in too. If you put the mixture into the refridgerator for 30 mintutes or so it will tighten up some and be easier to work with.
- Preheat the oven to 400. Combine the bread crumbs and friend crushed onions together in a shallow bowl. Prepare a rimmed cookie sheet by spraying it a healthy amount with nonstick cooking spray.
- Work with 1/4 cup of potato mixture at a time and form into patties. Press into the crumb mixture. and arrange it on the cookie sheet.
- Place in the oven and cook for 20 minutes. Use a spatula to flip the cakes and continue cooking 20 more minutes.
- Let the cakes set 5-10 minutes before serving.

Made these tonight with leftovers from last night. Didn't have stuffing, but added some cheddar cheese, smoked sausage, and leftover corn. Also was surprised to discover we were out of biscuit mix, so used pancake mix instead. We were all really hungry, so I pan fried them instead of baking this time so they could be on the table faster. They were terrific! Will bake them next time to save on the calories. Thanks for a versatile recipe that can be switched up as needed!

Just what I was looking for! I have tried to make potato pancakes out of left over potatoes before but they never stayed together.....the bisquick was just the ticket....that was the ingredient I have been missing! Thank you so much! Used leftover potatoes and stuffing from Christmas and they made a meal with a side of fruit!! Thanks again!!
