Equipment
  • 1 Baking Sheet
  • 1 Hand grater
  • 3 One gallon freezer bags
Ingredients
 
 
  • 10 potatoes
  • salt and pepper
Instructions
 
Freezer prep directions:
  • Preheat oven to 350. Poke holes in potatoes with a fork and set on baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven for 1 hour. (Potatoes will be just tender and not super soft. This helps when you shred the potatoes before freezing)
  • After potatoes are cooked, cool in fridge for a couple hours or overnight.
  • If desired, peel potatoes. Then, shred them either using a hand grater or a food processor with proper attachment.
  • Lay the shredded potatoes out in a thin, even layer on the baking sheet and freeze for 1-2 hours. If necessary, use multiple baking sheets to avoid thick layers of potato.
  • After 1-2 hours remove shredded potatoes from freezer, break apart and set into gallon freezer bags. Now seal and set back into freezer. Potatoes will not be 100% frozen at this point but will be close. They will complete freezing in the gallon bags.
  • Seal, remove as much air as possible, and place into the freezer.
Cooking directions:
  • Whenever you're ready for a tasty side for eggs or pancakes, remove from the freezer and cook according to your preferred method.
