Directions:
Mix mashed potatoes, eggs, flour, onion, salt and
pepper in large mixing bowl. Heat cast-iron skillet
with about 1/4 cup of oil in it until the oil is nearly
smoking. Test skillet by dropping a tiny bit of
batter in it. It should instantly sizzle and start
browning around the edges. When the skillet is
hot enough, drop a heaping tablespoons of batter
into the skillet. Mash down slightly. When they
have browned on one side, turn them carefully
with a spatula to brown on the other side. Remove
to drain individually on paper towels. Wipe skillet
and add more oil or bacon fat for second batch.
Stack pancakes carefully for serving after they
have all drained individually.
