Pumpkin Spiced Latkes [Vegan, Gluten-Free] – One Green Planet

To Make the Latkes:

1. Gently sauté one medium onion and put aside.
2. Lay 2 paper towels on a flat surface/large plate, and grate the peeled potatoes.
3. Scoop up the paper towel with the potatoes inside and press out as much liquid as you can. Do not let the grated potatoes sit for too long or they tend to brown.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, sautéed onion, non-dairy cheese shreds, and the rest of the ingredients. Stir well to combine and set aside.
5. In a heavy-bottomed 12-inch skillet, heat 1/2-inch of olive oil on medium-high.
6. Using small handfuls of the potato mixture, form thin pancakes and place them into the skillet. Try not to overcrowd them.
7. Cook each side for 4-5 minutes, gently checking the bottoms with a fork.
8. Line a plate with paper towel and place it by the pan. Using two forks, gently shake off the excess oil from each pancake, and lay them on the plate.
9. Top with a spoonful of vegan sour cream and chopped green onions.
