Potato and Carrot Pancakes

October 6, 2010

This is making my mouth water! Be sure to top with unsweetened applesauce or possibly a bit of sour cream

Fresh Ingredients
1½ cups shredded potatoes (keep it easy – no need to peel them!)
1½ cups shredded carrots
3 T grated onion

PantryFare
¼ cup plus ½ T whole wheat flour

Spices and Oils
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

Drain the shredded potatoes in a large strainer while you shred the carrots. Press any remaining liquid out with the back of a large spoon then place the potatoes in a large bowl. Add the carrots and the remaining ingredients, mixing thoroughly.

Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat the oil it lightly. Using 3 tablespoons of mixture, shape pancakes into patties ¼ to ½-inch thick. Cook until golden brown on both sides. If pancakes start to stick, spray them lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
