Peel and grate the potatoes using a box grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and wring out as much liquid as possible. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
In the same bowl, add the flour, eggs, milk, green onions, cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture for each pancake into the skillet. Flatten the mixture slightly with the back of a spoon to form round pancakes.
Cook each pancake for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown and crisp. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. Repeat with the remaining potato mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Once cooked, transfer the pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped parsley, if desired.
