You’ll Need

  • 1 large russet potato, scrubbed and grated (approx. 2 1/2 cups)
  • 1 medium apple, scrubbed and grated (approx. 1 cup)
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • Vegetable oil
  • Sour cream or plain yogurt, for serving
  • Honey, for serving

Prep and Cook

  • Place grated potatoes and apples on a clean tea towel and wring out to remove any excess liquid (you want the potato and apple shreds to be dry)
    Transfer to a medium mixing bowl
  • Add egg, flour, salt, baking powder, and onion powder to the mixing bowl and stir well to combine
  • Heat 1/4-inch oil in a skillet set over medium-high heat
    Drop 1/4 cup dollops into the hot oil, flattening the mounds slightly
  • Fry, turning once, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until crispy brown all over
    Drain pancakes on paper towel
  • Serve warm with sour cream or yogurt and a drizzle of honey, if desired
