Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2½ cups grated sweet potato about 2 medium
  • ½ cup grated apple skin on (about 1 small apple)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg beaten
  • 5 tablespoons sorghum flour
  • Avocado oil for shallow frying

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine grated sweet potato, grated apple, and lime juice.
  2. Add cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, beaten egg, and sorghum flour; mix until a thick batter forms. Adjust with more egg if too dry or more sorghum flour if too wet.
  3. Heat enough avocado oil to coat the bottom of a large frying pan over medium heat.
  4. Scoop a heaping tablespoon of batter into the pan and gently flatten with the back of a spoon or spatula, leaving space between latkes.
  5. Cook until bottoms are golden brown, then flip and cook the second side until crisp and golden, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a cooling rack.
  6. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  7. Serve warm, plain, or topped with a spoonful of sour cream and a handful of broccoli sprouts.
