Potato crackers
Description
The bake comes together simply and quickly. You may need more or less flour — it depends on how moist your mashed potatoes are, so adjust the amount yourself. To boost the flavor, you can add spices to the potato dough, but I didn’t add any. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
