Peel the potatoes and the onion.
Grate the potatoes and onion using a box grater or food processor.
Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
Transfer the drained potatoes and onion to a large mixing bowl.
Add the eggs, gluten-free flour blend, salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the potato mixture. Mix well until everything is fully combined.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and form a small pancake shape. Place it carefully in the pan. Repeat this in batches to not overcrowd the pan.
Fry each pancake for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the pancakes from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the Kartoffelpuffer warm, optionally with applesauce or sour cream.
