Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 1/3 cup greek yogurt, plain
  • 1/3 cup low-fat milk
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons super fine sugar
  • 2 - apples, (1/2 pound) to make 1 cup grated apples
  • - vegetable oil, for frying
  • - maple syrup (or confectioner's sugar and ground cinnamon) for serving

How To Make apple latkes

  • Step 1
    Beat the egg with the yogurt and milk and set aside. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar into a bowl. Peel and core the apples, then grate them; I use a food processor, but a coarse grated would work easily, I'd imagine.
  • Step 2
    Pour the yogurt mixture into the flour bowl, tip in the grated apples and fold it together.
  • Step 3
    Pour enough oil to come about 1/4 inch up a skillet and put on the stove to heat. Dollop spoonfuls of the apple batter into the sizzling oil; a rubber spatula will help scrap the batter off the spoon and press down on the latkes in the pan. Don't worry about making perfect round pancakes; fry for a minutes or two, until the latkes are a golden brown on the underside; you can see from the top as they start firming underneath. Flip them with 2 metal spatulas and fry for another minute on the uncooked side.
  • Step 4
    Remove to a tray lined with paper towels to blot the excess oil and continue cooking until you've used up all the batter. Top with maple syrup.
