Jesse's Favorite Crispy-Baked Potato Pancakes
Makes about 18 pancakes

1/4 cup virgin olive oil (divided)

2 pounds Idaho potatoes, peeled

5 whole green onions, ends trimmed and minced

5 tablespoons flour

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 large egg plus 1 large egg white, lightly beaten

1 cup sour cream and/or applesauce for serving

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Brush two baking sheets liberally with the olive oil, reserving a tablespoon.

Using a hand grater or the shredding dish of a food processor, grate the potatoes and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Add minced green onions, flour, salt and pepper. Mix and add egg and egg white and reserved tablespoon of oil, and stir to mix.

Drop batter by large spoonfuls onto the oiled baking sheets. Press lightly to flatten and form circular pancakes, about 3 inches in diameter.

Bake in preheated oven 10 to 12 minutes, until golden brown on the tops. Using a spatula, flip pancakes over and flatten them. Bake another 5 to 6 minutes, or until golden brown. Let pancakes cool slightly on the baking sheet before arranging on a serving platter, and serve with sour cream and/or applesauce on the side.
