Weight Watchers Thyme Potato Pancakes
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1½ pounds potatoes peeled, grated and well-drained
- 1 small onion grated
- 4 medium scallions chopped
- 6 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme minced
- 1 large egg
- kosher salt to taste
- fresh ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400ºF
- Prepare two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper.
- Take a strainer and line it with paper towels. Place the potatoes and onions in the strainer and press out any excess water.
- In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, onions, scallions, flour, thyme, egg, salt, and pepper. Gently toss to combine.
- Using a ¼-cup measure, scoop the potato mixture into your hands. Form each scoop into a round pancake that is 3-inches in diameter and about ¼-inch thick.
- Place the pancakes onto the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining mixture until you have eight pancakes on each sheet.
- Coat the pancakes with cooking spray.
- Bake the pancakes for 10 minutes, then remove them from the oven.
- Flip the pancakes over, coat them with cooking spray, and rotate the pans in the oven.
- Bake the pancakes for an additional 10 minutes, then rotate the pans in the oven again.
- Continue baking until the pancakes are well-browned, which should take about 10 more minutes.
- Remove the potato pancakes from the baking sheets and place them on a serving platter.
- If desired, sprinkle lightly with additional kosher salt before serving.
