Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes peeled and grated
- 1/2 medium onion grated
- 2 large eggs beaten
- 4 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Applesauce for serving optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix the grated sweet potato and onion with beaten eggs, flour, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Spoon about 3 tablespoons of the sweet potato mixture into the hot oil, flattening it into a pancake shape with a spatula.
- Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve hot with a side of applesauce if desired.
