German Potato Pancakes Recipe is diabetic-friendly using grated sweet potato, whole wheat flour, and egg. The mixture is seasoned with salt and pepper and pan-fried. These savory pancakes are served with applesauce or sour cream and are perfect for snack time, brunch, or dinner. This recipe can be customized using potato, zucchinia, and all-purpose flour!
Prepare the ingredients. Use kitchen paper to absorb most of the moisture leaving some starch.
Mix the ingredients (except the olive oil) until combined in a bowl.
Heat a nonstick griddle or a pan with a few drops of olive oil. Spoon out the mixture and flatten the top with the back of the spoon. Cook on medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
Flip them over and add a few drops of olive oil. Cook for another 3-4 minutes. Drain and blot the pancakes on paper towels.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream on the side and garnish with cut chives.

Notes
I like these pancakes golden brown using less oil. If you prefer them crispy, add a little more oil and fry until the desired crispiness and color.
