Apple Cinnamon Latkes are a mouth-watering twist on traditional latkes that are perfect for any occasion.

In this recipe, we will show you how to make these delicious latkes step-by-step.
Ingredients (serves 4):
- 2 large apples, peeled and grated
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1/4 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Use a box grater to grate the apples. This will ensure that the apples are evenly grated and will help to prevent any large chunks in the latkes.
- Squeeze out any excess liquid from the grated apples before adding them to the batter. This will help to prevent the latkes from becoming too soggy.
- Use a non-stick pan or a well-seasoned cast iron skillet to fry the latkes. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the pan.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract.
3. Add the grated apples to the egg mixture and stir to combine.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
5. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
6. Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop the batter into the pan and flatten with a spatula.
7. Fry the latkes for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
8. Remove the latkes from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
9. Serve the latkes warm with a dollop of sour cream or applesauce.
