Directions:
Caramelize the onions:

Saute onions in ¼ cup oil on a low flame for at least 20-30 minutes, but longer is even better. You can saute the onions ahead of time.

Prepare the knishes:

Preheat oven to 400º.

In a large bowl, combine the caramelized onions, potatoes, oil, eggs, potato starch, salt and pepper, if using.

For best results, break up the potatoes first using a potato masher or a heavy spoon.

Using an electric mixer, blend together all ingredients until mostly smooth. A few lumps are fine. Do not over-mix.

Grease cupcake pans well with oil (a little extra in each pan is well worth the calories - it really helps the knishes develop a fried-like crust). Fill the pans until almost full with potato batter.


Bake at 400 for about 26-28 minutes, until tops are golden brown.
Serve hot.

These knishes freeze well!

Personal Notes:
I used silicone cupcake liners and greased the inside of them. The knishes came out easily. I lightly brushed the top of the knish with oil before baking.
