Chanukah Latkes

Fresh out of the oven and topped with apple sauce

This year, I wanted a simple no-fret latke recipe to take along with us to a Chanukah party. I did some searching around and found a good one to try from The Healthy Maven.

Hello, baked latkes! So much easier than frying up in a pan!

No egg or gluten in these latkes.  The flax egg and the oats worked out.

What you need:
1 flax egg: 3 Tbl warm water mixed with 1 Tbl ground flax
3 medium russet potatoes 
1 medium onion
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup oat flour made in Thermomix
1 Tbl melted coconut oil
1 tsp pink salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

What to do:
 Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Line baking tray with baking paper and rub with a little coconut oil

Make flax egg and set aside

Grind oat flour in Thermomix, set aside in bowl

Chop potatoes in Thermomix, 5 seconds/speed 5. Press out excess liquid in Thermomix basket using silicone spatula.  Set aside in large bowl.

Chop onion in Thermomix, 4 seconds/speed 5. Add to potatoes

Add into the potato/onion mixture all the ingredients

Grab 1/4 cup of the mixture and form a ball

Place on baking sheet and flatten slightly

Place in the oven for 15 minutes, Then flip the latkes and bake for another 15 minutes
