Air fryer German Potato Pancakes

Ingredients:

• 4 medium potatoes, peeled and grated
• 1 small onion, finely grated
• 2 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
• Oil spray for the air fryer basket

Instructions:

1. Prep the Potatoes and Onion:
   • Grate the potatoes and onion into a bowl. Use a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
2. Make the Batter:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, onion, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and nutmeg (if using). Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
3. Shape the Pancakes:
   • Form the mixture into small, flat patties (about 3 inches in diameter).
4. Preheat the Air Fryer:
   • Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes.
5. Cook the Pancakes:
   • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with oil. Place the potato pancakes in a single layer, leaving space between each.
   • Spray the tops of the pancakes with a bit of oil to help them crisp up.
   • Air fry for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
6. Serve:
   • Serve hot with applesauce, sour cream, or your favorite dipping sauce.
