These German potato pancakes are a nice change from regular pancakes. They make a great dinner meal when served with Bratwurst sausage. I spread mine with cranberry sauce and top with maple syrup.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 6 medium potatoes, peeled and shredded
- ½ cup finely chopped onion

How To Make German Potato Pancakes
- Beat eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl; stir in potatoes and onion.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop heaping tablespoonfuls of potato mixture into hot oil in batches. Press to flatten. Cook until browned and crisp, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat with remaining potato mixture.
