Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 2 medium russet potatoes
- 1 medium onion
- 2 large eggs
- 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray.
Grate the zucchini and potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated zucchini and potatoes in a clean kitchen towel, and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
Grate the onion and combine it with the drained zucchini and potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Add the eggs, flour, bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix well until the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into your hands and form it into a small patty. Place the patty onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, spacing the latkes slightly apart on the sheet.
Brush the tops of the latkes lightly with olive oil or spray them with additional cooking spray to help with browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes, then flip each latke carefully. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10-13 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the latkes from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with sour cream, applesauce, or your favorite dipping sauce.
