Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe Linky. I love all types of pancakes and these tasty pancakes were no exception. I enjoyed the potato pancakes very much. They were quick and really easy to make with lovely results. Served with a little butter and salt and pepper. made for CQ4-Scandinavia.

I didn't peel my potatoes but did follow the rest of the directions. Very nice potato pancake that we enjoyed with brunch. Thanks Linky for sharing. Congrats on your Football win...again!

Wonderful potato pancakes!!! I made 1/4 of the recipe and I did cheat and use "Simply" Hash browns, which are already peeled, shredded and drained. I have never seen lingonberries at our store, so just topped with a little sour cream and chives. Served these with the bacon on the side and some scrambled eggs for a delicious brunch. Made for your win in the Football Pool!!
