These 'cakes will have you celebrating Hanukkah year-round! Not being fried in a ton of oil and subbing jicama for potatoes makes for a much healthier latke. More goodness? They're easy and they cover all the buzz words: gluten-free, grain-free, paleo-friendly, vegetarian.
1/2 jicama (~150 grams)
1 medium carrot
1/4 C egg whites
1/2 tsp Mexican spice blend
Grate jicama and carrot coarsely by hand. Squeeze excess water. Mix in a bowl with egg whites and your favorite spice blend.
Heat a bit or coconut oil or cooking spray in pan over medium heat. Divide latke batter into 4 even parts and press into pan as a pancake. Cook ~5 minutes on each side, or until latkes are lightly browned.
Plate and top as desired. I served mine over greens and turkey, then topped it with salsa and avocado.
Makes 4 latkes.
