Directions

  1. Make a deep vertical cut on each side of the potato and apple.

  2. Attach potato to a spiralizer fitted with the small shredded blade and cut into thin shreds. Repeat with apple. Spread shredded potato and apple on several layers of paper towels, squeeze to release as much moisture as possible. Transfer to a bowl.

  3. Mix egg, flour, maple syrup, salt, and nutmeg into the bowl.

  4. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture into the skillet, flatten slightly with a spatula. Cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with remaining mixture, adding more oil if needed.

Recipe Yield

8 small latkes

Recipe Note

A nontraditional approach to a potato latke. The shredding is done using a spiralizer, and the apple and maple syrup give you just enough sweetness to make these different. Good topped with sour cream or applesauce.
