carrots & sweet potato latkes
No Image
This is my absolute favorite Chanukah latke recipe that I obtained from the Hadassah Magazine many years ago. Very sweet and crispy, perfect for the holidays. The secret to keeping them from falling apart is the flour, just in case they don't seem to stick together in the pan. Can easily double the recipe. Lots of prep time before the actual combining of ingredients, but well worth the effort!
