Peel and coarsely grate the Yukon Gold potatoes. Place the grated potatoes into a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and egg (or flax egg if vegan).
Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh parsley until well combined.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the potato mixture and shape into a patty. Carefully place it into the hot oil. Repeat to fill the skillet without overcrowding.
Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Continue cooking in batches until all the potato mixture is used.
Serve the fritters warm garnished with additional parsley if desired.
