Mashed Potato Cakes

Description
This savory vegetable dish starts with the real mashed potatoes and milk and delivers a rich, steamy flavor.

Ingredients

 * 1 cup flour
 * 1 large egg, beaten
 * 3 cloves garlic, minced
 * ½ cup milk
 * 1 tsp alum-free baking powder
 * salt and pepper to taste (if needed)

Directions

 * 4) Place potato cakes on a baking sheet and bake for 10–15 minutes, until lightly browned.
