Potato Latkes

Latkes are one of my favorite Hanukkah traditions, but truthfully I love them any time of year. Crispy, crunchy, and utterly addictive, this easy Potato Latkes recipe guarantees the best latkes ever. Trust me, you don’t want to miss these!

I’m a total sucker for the holidays and especially the foods that you get at this time of year. I always loved celebrating Hanukkah with my friends when I was growing up, spinning the dreidel, lighting the menorah for 8 days, eating chocolates coins (Hanukkah gelt), and especially munching on crispy Potato Latkes with tons of homemade applesauce and sour cream. And now I get to celebrate with my husband and kids. Making these treats is a beautiful way to celebrate the festival of lights.
