Ingredients

  • 1 sweet potato no need to peel, small to medium in size
  • 2 zucchini medium size
  • 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
  • 4 egg
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • olive oil for cooking
  • sour cream for serving, optional
  • applesauce for serving, optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Grate the sweet potato and zucchini in a food processor fitted with the shredding disc. You could also shred by hand using a cheese grater, but it will, of course, take longer!
  2. Transfer the veggies to a large bowl and toss together with the flour, eggs, salt, and pepper until well combined. 
  3. Heat a thin layer of olive oil over medium heat in your largest skillet. Add spoonfuls of the veggie mix to the pan (I used an ice cream scoop for even sizing) and cook until golden brown on both sides.
  4. Drain on a plated lined with a paper towel, season with additional salt and pepper (if desired), and serve warm topped with applesauce and sour cream (optional).
