    Method: 

    Preheat oven to 400°F.

    Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, combine potatoes, scallion, onion, egg, flour, salt and pepper, and stir well.

    Heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Scoop potato mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, into pan and flatten slightly to make a pancake. Add as many pancakes as will fit into pan without crowding and cook 3 minutes per side or until browned. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining 2 teaspoons oil and remaining potato mixture.

    Bake pancakes for 5 minutes, or until cooked through and crisp.
