Boxty Recipe (Irish Potato Pancakes)
My easy boxty recipe, or Irish potato pancakes, are made with a mix of shredded Yukon potatoes and leftover mashed potatoes, fried in butter until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside while staying soft and fluffy inside. Best part? I have them ready warm on the breakfast table in under 30 minutes.

5
Mix until the batter is combined. If It’s too thick add more buttermilk and if it’s too thin, add some flour. It should be the consistency of soupy mashed potatoes.
