Lighter Latkes

Ingredients and instructions:
The potato pancakes, or latkes, eaten during Hanukkah are usually fried in oil.

You can keep the tradition, but not the fat and calories, by baking them.

Here's how:
Prepare your favorite recipe, but substitute one egg white for each of the whole eggs.

Be sure to use baking potatoes instead of boiling potatoes.

Brush a baking sheet with a scant teaspoon of oil.

Drop the latke batter onto the sheet.

Bake for 10 minutes at 450 degrees.

Turn and bake 6 minutes longer or until crisp.

Note:
Fresh homemade applesauce spiced with fragrant ground cinnamon makes the perfect side dish.
