Serves: 12 pancakes
 
Ingredients
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled
  • 2 small tart apples, peeled
  • ¼ cup finely chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch freshly ground pepper
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • Canola oil for frying
Instructions
  1. In large bowl, shred sweet potatoes and apples (in this order to keep apples from oxidizing) by rubbing them across the large holes of a hand or box grater; lightly blot excess moisture with paper towel. Stir in all remaining ingredients except oil until blended.
  2. In large skillet, heat ¼-inch oil over medium-high heat 2 to 3 minutes or until hot (exact oil amount needed will vary depending on the size of your skillet). Drop batter by tablespoonfuls into hot oil, flattening batter to form 2- to 3-inch pancakes.
  3. Fry 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and edges are bubbly. Drain on paper towels placed on a plate; serve hot. Serve with sour cream or homemade applesauce.
