Potato Cake Recipes

As with many recipes for potatoes, potato cake recipes can take the form of a main dish, a side dish, or a dessert. Potato cakes are often combined with flour, eggs and a small amount of cream, and then fried in butter as a delicious but high-calorie accompaniment to a meal. Either white or sweet potatoes can be used in this manner, and the addition of some Cajun seasonings such as cayenne can give your meal a taste of New Orleans.

A shredded or mashed potato can be combined with other vegetables, such as corn or creamed corn, to make really tasty potato cakes. Serve with sausages or ham for a German or country style dinner.

Chocolate cake recipes abound that have mashed potatoes in their ingredients, and this gives a wonderful, dense moist texture. A sweet potato can be used in a white chocolate or spice cake recipe with the same results.

Peanut butter chocolate potato cake is also another perennial favorite and especially appealing to the younger set, although most of them don’t need to be convinced to eat cake.

The use of potatoes in cake recipes is a good way to add richness to a cake, yet reduce the fat and calorie content that usually provides richness in the form of butter and/or sour cream. There are innumerable recipes online for potato cake recipes, whether you are looking for a main dish, a side dish or a dessert. Many recipes don’t require advanced cooking skills and many are easily adaptable to budget and/or dietary restrictions. Some of the best ones can be found here below:
