Spicy Sweet Potato Pancakes

Potato pancakes, also known as latkes, are a delicious gluten-free vegan breakfast option and they’re just as easy to make as regular pancakes! Top these crispy treats with the traditional topping, applesauce, or add vegan sour cream or ketchup!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of shredded sweet potatoes
1/2 of a small yellow onion, shredded
1/4 cup of chickpea flour
2 tablespoons of water
1 tablespoon of olive oil
1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon of cumin
1/2 teaspoon of sea salt
1/2 teaspoon of pepper
1/4 teaspoon of sweet or smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to taste
Coconut oil for cooking

Instructions:
1. Start by shredding your sweet potatoes and onion into a large mixing bowl. Next, add the chickpea flour, oil, vinegar, and spices. Make sure to mix until you don’t see any streaks of flour.
2. Heat up a large, flat pan over medium heat and add a small amount of coconut oil or cooking oil of your choice. Roll a ball of the potato mixture with roughly two tablespoons and flatten it into a pancake shape about ¾ inches thick. Place as many pancakes into the pan as you can without crowding and cook for roughly a minute until golden brown and crispy. Flip and repeat the process until you’re out of the potato mixture!
3. Keep the finished pancakes warm in the oven, they’re much better when eaten warm. Add your toppings and enjoy your vegan gluten-free breakfast! (These are good at any time of day by the way)
