Potato Pancakes for Breakfast or Brunch

An easy recipe for potato pancakes that you make in a food processor.

Serve these pancakes for breakfast or brunch with maple syrup and sausage on the side, and perhaps a dish of fruit or applesauce.

This recipe is for everyone that loves a savory pancake but does not want to go through the trouble of ricing potatoes.

By using a food processor, the job of mixing the batter is a snap.

These pancakes turn out crispy and golden brown, not greasy and soggy.

You can also top them with applesauce, as the fruit complements the potato and onion quite nicely.
