Note

The original recipe mentioned a breading mixture of whole wheat flour and brewer's yeast, but the ingredient list only includes oatmeal. If you prefer a crispier crust, you can roll the formed patties in the dry oatmeal before frying, or use the flour/yeast mixture mentioned in the source as a coating instead of mixing the oats into the batter.

Ensure the mashed potatoes are cool to room temperature before mixing to prevent the patties from falling apart during frying.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or skillet to maintain crispiness.
