With recipe-ready Simply Potatoes, comfort food is even more comforting. Known in Ireland as Boxty, these griddlecakes are made with mashed and shredded potatoes with bacon bits and Cheddar cheese.
Super yummy! Saw a couple posts about these being bland. I added about a 1/2 tsp or so of seasoning salt, about a 1/4 cup of Panko and used 1/4 cup dehydrated onions instead of the fresh onion and they tasted awesome! Definitely not tasteless. Wonderful for a relaxing Sunday brunch!

I doubled the recipe for my family of five and they ate the entire thing. Instead of green onions, I cooked a chopped yellow onion to golden brown. I also cooked the bacon first before chopping - too difficult the other way. Added salt and pepper to the batter. I served these with corned beef along with sour cream and sauerkraut
These are so good and tasty, I add a wee bit of dehydrated onion to it. The only issue I have is I can't finish one! They are so filling, like really. I had 3/4 of one at brunch and I am good for the day. My son asks for these every other Sunday.
Our version is an OLD family recipe from waaay back. It's been adjusted over time - like switching to bisquick when it became available - but other than one ingredient left out, and one ingredient used completely rather than discarded, it's the same. We've never used the cheese in ours, which is the one removed ingredient, but I learned this recipe from Mom aaaaages ago. We actually mix the grilled onion bits into the mix, too - that's the ingredient competely used, rather than discarded - and we use a bisquick-type mix instead of the flour, etc., but it's basically the same dish. We LOVE to use leftover boiled or baked potatoes, and just hash them into the rest of the already mixed batter & then mix in the onion, too. Cook just as described in here, and they're usually eaten around here as soon as they're cool enough to handle, LOL! Oh, and the bacon bits end up in salads, later, too!
It didn't look like much, so I doubled the recipe. Now I've got way too much! Tasty and simple recipe.
Made this recipe with my highschool cooking class and it's great! My family always made potato pancakes without flour so the texture of these was a refreshing change. Goes great with a little sour cream on top!
Used leftover mashed potatoes and shredded my own potatoes delicious, no bacon and fried in coconut oil its lent ya know can't wait for that to be over
My boys live this recipe. It is very easy to make, and filling. (My 8 year old loves them topped with butter!)
Superb flavor!! Reminds me of a restaurant in Wisconsin where I get them when I visiting my family!!
Loved it! I needed a good recipe to use up some leftover mashed potatoes, and this worked great!
I made this for Mothers day and I added in salt, pepper, and garlic and it perfect I would make again!
Instead of using the packaged potatoes and packaged hashbrowns, I used fresh whipped potatoes from KFC and grated one russet potato and also used Bermuda onion instead of white. The onion flavor kicked it up a bit, smoked bacon tasted even better! Very simple to make, easy cleanup, and it made eight beautiful pancakes. I’m no professional photographer so the picture you see are two of the potatoes with a layer of applesauce and a dollop of sour cream! Absolutely fantastic and highly recommend to all! Ya dint af to be Irish ta njoy!!
This was so yummy, even my son who is picky about eating breakfast, loved them!! I made mashed potatoes with an instant potatoes mix I had on hand, and I used pancake mix instead of the baking flour, because I didn't have any flour left lol. It turned out fantastic anyways!!! I'll definitely be making these again, so easy peasy to make!!
Great recipe, simple and delicious breakfast! Since I try not to eat prepackaged foods, I grated a medium size potato myself and had some leftover mashed potatoes I cooked last night, I added a pinch of coarse salt and used Swans Down cake flour since I was out of baking mix. Served with sour cream. It was very good, but I think next time I will not use mashed potatoes, and will double the raw grated potatoes. Thanks for the recipe!
