Updated on Nov 15, 2012

All time fave recipe passed down from Great gramma. Simple, inexspensive, and delish. We enjoy crispy and salty. Everbody when making potato pancakes tend to serve them for side dish. Not us we like just them w/ sour cream and applesauce. In fact the kids are always coming back for more before I get my plate. Have to invest in large griddle.
