Peel the potatoes and onion, and cut them into chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, combine the potatoes, onion, eggs, flour, salt, black pepper, and baking powder. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth but still has tiny bits of texture.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a thin layer of vegetable oil to coat the surface.
Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the potato batter into the skillet for each pancake, flattening slightly with the back of a spoon to shape them.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the pancakes are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve hot with sour cream, applesauce, or your favorite toppings.
