POTATO PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY GRANNY SMITH APPLESAUCE AND CINNAMON CREME FRAICHE



Potato Pancakes with Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce and Cinnamon Creme Fraiche image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 small onion, peeled
1 large baking potato (about 1 pound), peeled
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Pinch baking powder
Canola oil, for frying
Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce, recipe follows
Cinnamon Creme Fraiche, recipe follows
3 to 6 tablespoons granulated sugar (depending on how sweet or tart you want it)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into large dice
1 cup creme fraiche
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • On a box grater, coarsely shred the onion and potato. Transfer to a colander or wrap in a cheesecloth sling, and squeeze as dry as possible. Let stand for 2 minutes, then squeeze dry again. Put the potatoes in a large bowl, add the flour, salt, pepper, baking powder and egg, and gently fold to combine.
  • In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Drop heaping tablespoons of the potatoes into the skillet and flatten them with the back of the spoon. Cook the pancakes over moderately high heat until the edges are golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the bottom, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  • Serve the potato pancakes topped with Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce and a small dollop of Cinnamon Creme Fraiche.
  • Cook's Note: Reheat the pancakes in a single layer on a cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven until they're crisp again. If you undercooked them a bit or didn't get the browning on them you'd hoped for, you can compensate for this in the oven.
  • To a large pot, combine 1 cup water, sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest, and apples. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Taste for sweetness and add more sugar if desired. Coarsely mash to a chunky consistency. Let cool to room temperature.;
  • Whisk together creme fraiche and cinnamon, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.;

PERFECT POTATO PANCAKES



Perfect Potato Pancakes image

I like to serve these potato pancakes with barbecued sausage. They're also nice with baked ham and applesauce or with breakfast sausages. And, with these and other types of meals, they're a good alternative to french fries. My children are married, and I'm a widow. So I don't do as much cooking as I once did. Guests always ask for the recipe when I serve this dish, though. And when my son and his family visited me from Winnipeg not long ago, one of the first things he asked for were Perfect Potato Pancakes!

Tips:

  • For the perfect pancake batter, use a ratio of 2 parts grated potatoes to 1 part flour. This will ensure that your pancakes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
  • Use a large skillet or griddle over medium heat to cook the pancakes. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or griddle when cooking the pancakes. Leave enough space between each pancake so that they can cook evenly.
  • Flip the pancakes only once, when the edges are golden brown and bubbles start to form on the surface.
  • If you're making the pancakes ahead of time, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm them up in a skillet or oven until heated through.

Conclusion:

These potato pancakes with chunky gingered applesauce are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The pancakes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the applesauce is a sweet and tangy complement.
