Ingredients

• 2 medium potatoes
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons chives
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   Peel and grate the potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Use a box grater or food processor for efficiency.

2. 2

   Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated potatoes using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, combine the mashed potatoes (from the second potato) with flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

4. 4

   Add the buttermilk, egg, and chopped chives to the potato mixture and mix until just combined.

5. 5

   Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.

6. 6

   Pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the griddle for each pancake, spreading it slightly with the back of a spoon.

7. 7

   Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side.

8. 8

   Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more butter to the griddle as needed.

9. 9

   Serve warm with additional butter, sour cream, or applesauce if desired.
