PARSNIP AND CARROT LATKES (VEGETABLE PANCAKES)
A new twist to a traditional Jewish dish - Serve instead of potato latkes at Chanukah, or in addition. These vegetable pancakes are beautifully colorful and very tasty. They go wonderfully with sour cream. The gluten-free rice flour mix I use is 3 cups white rice flour, 3 cups brown rice flour, 2 cups potato starch (not flour), 1 cup tapioca starch - Use just one cup of this mixture. If you can eat gluten, use just 1/2 cup of matzo meal instead.

Steps:
- Grate potatoes in long strips, using smooth strokes to run potatoes across the grater. Transfer to a large bowl of cold water. Use a slotted spoon to remove potatoes. Drain well and transfer to a second bowl. Reserve soaking liquid. Set reserved liquid aside for 10 minutes to allow the starch to sink to the bottom of the bowl. Carefully pour liquid from the bowl, reserving the milky residue (potato starch).
- Using the same method as for potatoes, grate parsnip and carrot. To potatoes add parsnip, carrots, reserved potato starch, chives, egg, salt, and pepper, and mix well.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking sheet with paper towels; set aside. In a heavy nonstick skillet, heat 1/2 inch of oil. Working in batches to accommodate pan size, spoon 1/4 cup of potato mixture into skillet for each pancake. Drop into oil loosely; you should be able to see oil bubbling up in between the individual strands. Fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to prepared baking sheet to drain. Sprinkle with salt. Keep warm in oven. Serve hot, with sour cream and lemon slices.

Steps:
- 1. Grate carrot and zucchini in a large bowl. Take a clean towel and place mixture on the towel and wring extra moisture out. Place back in the bowl. Add the remaining ingredients, MINUS the coconut oil, and only 1/3 cup flour. Mix with your hands until you can make a ball and it will not fall apart. You may have to add more flour to achieve the desired consistency. On a separate plate, sprinkle some flour with some salt and pepper - this is for dredging the mixture.
- 2. In a large skillet, add coconut oil and heat on medium heat. Let warm up for a minute. Take the mixture and divide it into fourths. Take one serving of the mixture, roll it into a ball and roll into the flour mixture on the plate. Carefully place into the skillet, flattening until your desired size and thickness. Do this for all 4 servings. Let cook for 8-10 minutes on each side. You may have to add more oil when you flip. Make sure they do not burn. Simple and delicious!
SESAME CARROT PANCAKES W/BLACK BEAN GARLIC SAUCE
Asian black bean sauce is actually made from soy beans, which turn black as they ferment. When I saw the contest ingredients I was inspired to attempt a version using actual black beans. The sauce pairs nicely with the colorful sesame carrot pancakes. This recipe can be served as a unique side dish or as a hot or cold appetizer.

Steps:
- Blend together buttermilk, egg, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon, then add oat flour (make in your blender with about 1 1/3 - 1 1/2 cups quick oats) and blend for a few seconds. Add the shredded carrot (squeeze the juice from it and pack it into your measuring spoons), baking powder and baking soda and blend just for a couple of seconds. Immediately cook 1/4 cup batches on a greased (butter or margarine) skillet on medium-low heat until they are full of bubbles, the bottom is golden and it`s easily flippable. Cook the other side until done. Serve with maple syrup or room-temperature applesauce/jelly.
CARROT CAKE PANCAKES
Steps:
- 1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Fahrenheit so you can keep the pancakes warm before serving. Spoon the cream cheese into a bowl and leave it out at room temperature to soften. 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. 3. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the egg, Muscovado/brown sugar, buttermilk and vanilla. 4. Stir in the carrots, then dump the wet mixture into the dry mixture all at once. Stir just until incorporated. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes while you make the cream cheese topping and preheat your griddle/skillet. 5. Whisk the cream cheese in a small bowl until it is uniformly soft and pliable, with no lumps. If your cream cheese is not soft enough yet to do this, try zapping it in the microwave for just a few seconds at a time. Whisk in the maple syrup, milk, vanilla and cinnamon. Feel free to sweeten with more syrup or further thin it out further with more milk. Set aside. 6. Over medium heat, melt a big pat of butter in a cast-iron skillet or griddle. Pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into the hot pan, using the measuring cup to pat the batter down and out a bit. Cook, flipping once, until the pancakes are golden on both sides. 7. Place pancakes on an ovenproof plate and keep in the oven while you cook the remaining pancakes, adding more butter to the pan as needed. Top with maple cream cheese and serve with extra maple syrup on the side, in case someone wants to sweeten it up further.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality carrots. This will ensure that your pancakes are flavorful and have a bright orange color.
- Grate the carrots finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the batter and prevent them from becoming too crunchy.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pancakes tough.
- Use a nonstick skillet or griddle. This will prevent the pancakes from sticking and make them easy to flip.
- Cook the pancakes over medium heat. This will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings. Carrot pancakes are delicious with butter, syrup, honey, or fruit.
Conclusion:
Carrot pancakes are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch recipe. They are packed with flavor and nutrients, and they can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them simple or topped with your favorite ingredients, carrot pancakes are sure to please everyone at your table.
