Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 15 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 non-stick pan or cast iron skillet
  • food processor or box grater

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 large russet potatoes grated
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour sub all purpose flour
  • 1/2 grated yellow onion
  • 1/2 cup vegan egg I use JUST egg brand
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • sour cream + chives garnish

Instructions

  • Using a food processor or box grater grate the potatoes.
  • Wring the water out of the potatoes using a cheesecloth or clean dish towel. Grate the onion and well and ring out moisture. Add both to a large mixing bowl.
  • Add flour, just egg, a cornstarch, salt and pepper to the bowl as well.
  • Mix until very well combined.
  • Get out a nonstick pan. Heat a pan to medium high heat and add 3 tbsp olive oil. You’ll know when the oil is hot enough if you add a tiny piece of the potato mixture to the pan and it sizzles!
  • Scoop the latke mixture using a cookie dough scoop into the pan, I’d make up to 4 at a time without overcrowding the pan. Cook for 7 min per side (should be golden brown on each side). Add them onto a plate lined with paper towel to rid them of excess oil.
  • Repeat until all the latke batter is gone.
  • Serve with vegan sour cream and chives!! Yum!
