Servings: 15 latkes
Ingredients
- 2 cups grated gold white or sweet potatoes (approximately 1 ½ lbs; 3 medium sized potatoes)
- 1 small onion grated
- 3 eggs beaten (or 3/4 cup vegan mayo for vegan option)
- 3 Tbs. gfJules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- pepper to taste
- 1 tsp. dried parsley flakes or 1 ½ tsp. fresh parsley
- 1/8 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional or gluten free Nutritional Yeast (optional)
- high heat oil (I like avocado oil) for frying
- Applesauce or sour cream as a condiment
Instructions
- Wash then grate the potatoes in a food processor, with the skins on. Grate the onion as well, then combine.
- Stir the beaten eggs with a fork, then combine in a large bowl with the potatoes and onion.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, including the parsley, and slowly stir into the potato mixture until combined. If the mixture is too dry to hold together, slowly add in small amounts of milk; if it's too wet, add more gfJules Flour by the tablespoon.
- The final mixture should hold together in a pancake shape when scooped into the hot oil.
- Pour about 1/8 inch of oil in an electric or deep skillet. Bring the oil to between 375 – 400 F. Drop the potato mixture into the hot oil by large tablespoons, flattening the pancakes with the back of a spoon when in the oil. Cook each side until golden brown, flipping with a slotted spatula after approximately 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove the cooked latkes to a plate lined with paper towels. Keep warm in a warming drawer or low temperature oven until ready to serve with applesauce or sour cream, if desired.
- The latkes may be frozen once cooked, blotted and cooled. To reheat, cook on a baking sheet at 425 F convection or 450 F static for 15 minutes, turning repeatedly until crispy and hot.
- Yield: approximately 15 latkes.
Notes
These gluten free latkes may be cooked in an air fryer without oil instead, if you prefer. Simply prepare the pancakes and place on the basket of your air fryer and cook at 400 on each side until lightly browned and crispy.
