Potato Pancakes

There's this super fantastic Swedish breakfast place down the street from me where they serve super delicious potato pancakes. Here's my take on those thin, starchy cakes:

1 cup flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 1/2 cups milk
1 egg, beaten
1 russet potato, grated (a food processor grately aids here)
1 small onion, grated

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. In a separate bowl combine the milk, beaten egg, potato and onion. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.

Scoop batter onto a hot, buttered griddle. The thin batter will run a bit. Once it's settled into a pancake-like shape, use a spoon to spread the potato out evenly. Cook for a few minutes on each side.
