How to Make Deb's Potato Pancakes
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 small finely chopped yellow onion.
- Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just combined.
- Grate 2 pounds of russet potatoes using a box grater. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible. This step is crucial for crispy pancakes!
- Add the squeezed potatoes to the wet ingredients and gently fold to combine. Do not overmix.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Drop spoonfuls (about ¼ cup each) of the potato mixture into the hot skillet, leaving space between each pancake.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully using a spatula.
- Serve immediately with your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, applesauce, or chives.
