Sweet Potato Pancakes
These sweet and salty potato pancakes also make great breakfast hashbrowns when paired with a fried egg or bacon.
Ingredients
1 large sweet potato
1 apple
1 egg
2 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp salt
Method
- Grate the sweet potato and apple on the largest tooth of a box grater
- Add the salt and let sit for 15 minutes then ring out any excess moisture
- Add the egg and flour and combine evenly
- Heat 1/4 inch of oil in a large frying pan
- When the oil is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles in it, scoop about a 1/4 cup of the sweet potato mixture into the pan and press into a pancake
- Fry the potato pancakes until golden brown on one side (about 3 minutes) then flip and fry the other side
- Repeat in batches until the potato mixture is all gone
- Sprinkle with a bit of extra salt and serve warm
