How to Make Baked Zucchini Potato Latkes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, combine shredded potatoes, zucchini, egg, flour, salt, pepper, and optional onion. Mix well.
  3. Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Test a small amount of the latke mixture in the hot oil. If it sizzles slightly, the oil is ready. Otherwise, continue to heat the oil
  4. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each latke.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or chives.
