Deliciously crispy and buttery German potato pancakes that are perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups grated potatoes
  • 1/2 cup grated onion
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Grate the potatoes and onion, then place them in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, onion, flour, egg, salt, and pepper.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of melted butter.
  4. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture into the skillet, flattening it slightly to form a pancake.
  5. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  7. Serve hot with applesauce or sour cream.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add chopped herbs like chives or parsley to the mixture.
  • Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the potatoes for crispier pancakes.
  • These pancakes can be kept warm in the oven while you cook the rest.
