Sweet Potato Latkes (Sweet Potato Pancakes)
NeedTaste |Shredded sweet potatoes stand in for russets in this version of potato pancakes, and pur ed sweet potatoes replace eggs to make the recipe vegan. Starchy, dry-fleshed sweet potatoes, such as Okinawan or Boniato, work best. If you use a moist, extra-sweet type, such as Beauregard or Garnet, keep a close eye on the latkes while they cook the potatoes high sugar content may make the latkes burn if they re cooked just a moment too long. Serve with vanilla applesauce and vegan sour cream.. These vegan sweet potato latkes are full of the natural sweet potato flavor and onion adds just a touch of bite to them. There's no egg holding these together. Mashed sweet potato and flour do that. Once fried, there is a slight crunch on the outside and like a hash brown inside. They're delicious even if you're not following a plant-based diet. If you're vegan, serve with a little applesauce on the side. If not vegan, then sour cream would be delish.
