Ingredients:
- 1 russet potato
- 1 apple
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup flour
- Salt, to taste
- Ground black pepper, to taste
- Canola oil
- Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
-
Grate potatoes and apples: Begin by grating the russet potato and apple using a food processor. Work quickly to avoid discoloration of the ingredients.
-
Remove excess liquid: Once grated, squeeze out any excess liquid from the potatoes and apples. This step ensures that your pancakes have the perfect texture.
-
Prepare the batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes and apples with one egg and flour. Season with salt and ground black pepper according to your taste preferences. Mix the ingredients well until thoroughly combined.
-
Heat the oil: In a large non-stick skillet, heat enough canola oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Heating the oil adequately ensures that the pancakes cook evenly and achieve a crispy texture.
-
Cook the pancakes: Using a spoon, carefully portion out the batter into the skillet, being mindful not to overcrowd the pan. Allow the pancakes to cook until they are crisp and golden brown on one side, then carefully flip them over to fry the other side.
-
Keep warm: As you finish cooking each batch of pancakes, transfer them to a baking sheet and keep them warm in the oven until all the pancakes are fried. This ensures that each pancake stays warm and crispy.
-
Drain and serve: Once all the pancakes are cooked, drain any excess oil by placing them on paper towels. For an extra touch of sweetness, sprinkle powdered sugar over the pancakes just before serving, if desired.
-
Enjoy: Serve the Potato Pancakes with Apples warm and enjoy the delicious blend of flavors with your favorite toppings or accompaniments.
