Ingredients

• 4 cups butternut squash, peeled and shredded
• 1 medium yellow onion, grated
• 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 pieces large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 cups vegetable oil, for frying
• 0 optional sour cream or applesauce, for serving

Directions

Step 1

Peel and shred the butternut squash using a box grater or a food processor with a grating attachment. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Grate the onion and squeeze out the extra liquid. Add the onion to the bowl with the shredded butternut squash.

Step 3

Add the flour, eggs, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to the squash mixture. Mix thoroughly until well combined.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.

Step 5

Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the squash mixture and shape it into a small patty. Carefully place the patty into the hot oil. Repeat with the remaining mixture, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 6

Fry the latkes for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat if necessary to ensure even cooking.

Step 7

Drain the cooked latkes on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 8

Serve warm with a dollop of sour cream or applesauce, if desired.
