We topped these potato-apple latkes (pancakes) with a dollop of sour cream but they're also delicious with unsweetened applesauce.

Ingredients

Yukon gold potato

1 large, peeled

Apple

1 medium, such as Pink Lady, peeled, cored, quartered

Dehydrated onion flakes

4 tsp(s)

Raw egg

1 large, beaten

Table salt

¼ tsp(s)

Black pepper

¼ pinch(es)

Ground cinnamon

¼ tsp(s)

Fat free sour cream

½ cup(s)

Instructions

  1. Shred potato and apple into a medium-size bowl using the fine-holes of a box grater or shredder; stir in onion flakes. Press out as much liquid as you can by hand; drain liquid. Set aside mixture for 1 minute and press out liquid again; drain again. Stir in egg, salt, pepper and cinnamon.
  2. Coat a very large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Drop potato mixture by tablespoonfuls into skillet and flatten each with the back of a spoon to make twenty 2-inch latkes. Leave at least 1 inch between latkes; you will have to do this in batches.
  3. Cook latkes until golden on first side, about 3 minutes. Gently flip latkes with a spatula and cook until other side is golden, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Carefully remove latkes to a serving plate; cover to keep warm and repeat with remaining ingredients. Top with sour cream and serve. Yields 2 latkes and 2 1/3 teaspoons sour cream per serving.
