Potato-Parmesan Pancakes with Creamed Spinach Dip image

These tasty treats were inspired by steakhouse flavors. For those who observe the kosher prohibition against serving meat and dairy together, they're delicious on their own. If you don't keep kosher, try them alongside grilled and roasted poultry and meat.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups (200 grams) whole-wheat flour or whole-wheat pastry flour
