Prep: 35Cook: 10Total: 45
Servings: 6 1x

Ingredients

  • 1 sweet potato, spiralized with blade C
  • 1 shallot, chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 t. black pepper
  • 1/2 t. sea salt
  • 2 T. coconut oil
  • sour cream, for serving
  • fig jam, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the shallot, sweet potato, eggs, pepper, and salt. Set aside in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  2. Place the coconut oil in a frying pan. Turn it on high until the oil is melted and hot. Turn the heat down to medium.
  3. Grab a handful of spiralized potato mixture. I used kitchen scissors to cut off some potato strands when I have enough in my hand.
  4. Form a tightly packed ball.
  5. Place the ball into the oil and allow to sit for about a minute. Then, with the back of your spatula, press the ball down into a patty. Cook for another minute, or two, then flip. Cook the other side for two minutes and then remove to a plate lined with a paper towel.
  6. Repeat this process until your mixture is used up. I did three batches, making 6 patties total. I suggest only putting 2-3 patties in the pan at a time.
  7. Top your potato pancakes with a dollop of sour scream and fig jam. I got all fancy and put a rosemary sprig on top.
