Vegetable Pancakes
This is another one of those recipes where you can throw in whatever veggies you have on hand (and need to eat!). That is my favorite kind of recipe because I love it when you can still make a dish even if you don’t have all the “exact” ingredients.
Servings 2 people
Ingredients
- 2 cups mixed veggies shredded (I like to use a mix including things like white potatoes, sweet potatoes, zucchini, yellow squash and/or carrots…whatever you have on hand)
- 2 eggs
- 1 tablespoon whole-wheat flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- olive oil for cooking
- sour cream (optional garnish)
- applesauce (optional garnish)
Instructions
- Combine the shredded veggies with the eggs, flour, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
- Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. It is important that the heat is the right temperature because you want the pancakes to cook all the way through the middle by the time they are brown on the outside.
- Once the oil has heated up add pancake size dollops of the veggie mixture into the pan. Cook for several minutes until the bottom starts to brown. Then flip and repeat.
- Transfer cooked pancakes to a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve warm with sour cream and/or applesauce.
