Sweet Potato Latkes - Gluten Free
- 5 medium to large garnet sweet potatoes, peeled
- 1/4 cup gluten free flour blend
- 1/2 cup onion, finely diced
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- salt & pepper to taste
- olive oil
- Shred sweet potatoes in a food processor then wrap in cheesecloth or a dish towel and squeeze out excess moisture -- this can be tough with sweet potatoes. Transfer potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add in onions. Next, sprinkle flour and baking powder over the top of potatoes and incorporate. Now stir in both eggs until everything is well combined. Add in salt and pepper to taste if desired.
- In a heavy skillet add enough oil to coat bottom of pan. Heat over medium heat until oil is shimmery.
- Now create small "balls" of potato mixture (approx. scant 1/4 C.) with your fingers and place in skillet and gently flatten. Fry until browned then turn over and repeat. When latkes are done set aside on a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil.
- Serve with apple butter and sour cream or plain yogurt.
