Potato pancakes with onions - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! Almond flour, coconut flour, or a gluten-free all-purpose blend work well. Use a 1:1 ratio, but note that batter consistency may vary slightly.
Store cooled pancakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven for crispiness.
Absolutely! Replace eggs with 2 tbsp flaxseed meal mixed with 6 tbsp water (let it thicken first). Use a plant-based sour cream for serving.
Freeze them in a single layer on a tray, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 2 months. Reheat in a 375°F oven for 10-12 minutes until crispy.
Squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the grated potatoes, and ensure the batter isn’t too wet. Add an extra tbsp of flour if needed for binding.
Try applesauce, Greek yogurt with herbs, smoked salmon, or a fried egg on top for extra flavor and texture contrast.
Yes! Brush both sides with oil and bake at 400°F on a parchment-lined tray for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
For extra crunch, press the pancakes lightly with a spatula while frying and ensure the oil is hot (but not smoking) before adding the batter.
Shredded zucchini, carrots, or even corn kernels work well. Just drain excess moisture to avoid soggy pancakes.
Reduce carbs by using cauliflower rice (squeezed dry) instead of half the potatoes, and swap flour for 2 tbsp almond flour or omit entirely.
