Homemade Potato Pancakes Recipe

Often called Latkes, these delicious potato pancakes are a family favorite!

This post first appeared here in December, 2011 – ten years later – it’s still a family favorite!

Since Hanukkah starts on Sunday, November 28th. – I thought I’d bring it back with a few updates made over the years.

Old Fashioned Crispy Potato Pancakes

 

These old fashioned crispy potato pancakes are one of my favorites…all year round.

However, during Hanukkah, they’re a traditional must have. 

These delicious pancakes also get a gold star for being about one of the only foods that my entire family will eat. 

While I’m admittedly not the best cook, I know I make these really well…so, I thought I’d share my recipe here.

Included are also some fabulous “insider” tricks and tips (some passed down to me, others discovered after a few years on my own!).

Happy Hanukkah and hope you enjoy one of our favorite recipes.
