Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Buying frozen shredded hash brown potatoes cuts prep time in half, but if you’re shredding your own potatoes, be sure to drain the excess liquid thoroughly before adding them to the mixture.
  • tip 2
    Add a handful of cheese or chopped ham to the pancake “batter” for extra flavor.
