Baked Latkes

 Preheat oven to 425


With a cuisinart, shred 1.5-2 lbs potatoes and one onion. Use a salad spinner to spin out the liquid

Mix shredded potato/onion with 2 eggs, 2-3 T gluten free flour, salt, and pepper

Pour 1/2 cup oil on a sheet pan and heat in the oven for 10 minutes

Scoop latke mixture using a 1/4 cup. Put them on the hot oiled pan and lightly flatten with the back of the measuring cup.

Bake 20-25 minutes, flip, then bake for 8-10 more so they are crispy on both sides.

Top with flaky salt, and serve with applesauce and sour cream.
