POTATO PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY GRANNY SMITH APPLESAUCE AND CINNAMON CREME FRAICHE



Potato Pancakes with Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce and Cinnamon Creme Fraiche image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 small onion, peeled
1 large baking potato (about 1 pound), peeled
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Pinch baking powder
Canola oil, for frying
Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce, recipe follows
Cinnamon Creme Fraiche, recipe follows
3 to 6 tablespoons granulated sugar (depending on how sweet or tart you want it)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into large dice
1 cup creme fraiche
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • On a box grater, coarsely shred the onion and potato. Transfer to a colander or wrap in a cheesecloth sling, and squeeze as dry as possible. Let stand for 2 minutes, then squeeze dry again. Put the potatoes in a large bowl, add the flour, salt, pepper, baking powder and egg, and gently fold to combine.
  • In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Drop heaping tablespoons of the potatoes into the skillet and flatten them with the back of the spoon. Cook the pancakes over moderately high heat until the edges are golden, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the bottom, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
  • Serve the potato pancakes topped with Chunky Granny Smith Applesauce and a small dollop of Cinnamon Creme Fraiche.
  • Cook's Note: Reheat the pancakes in a single layer on a cookie sheet in a 400 degree oven until they're crisp again. If you undercooked them a bit or didn't get the browning on them you'd hoped for, you can compensate for this in the oven.
  • To a large pot, combine 1 cup water, sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest, and apples. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until soft, 8 to 10 minutes. Taste for sweetness and add more sugar if desired. Coarsely mash to a chunky consistency. Let cool to room temperature.;
  • Whisk together creme fraiche and cinnamon, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.;

Applesauce Dough Cinnamon Ornament Recipe image

These ornaments smell so good that you'll want to eat them-- but resist. They don't taste very good, I can promise you that. This dough rolls out very easily, and the cinnamon dough ornaments will last for years.

Provided by Melanie Campbell

Categories     Other Non-Edibles

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 c ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp ground cloves
3/4 c applesauce, unsweetened
1 tsp essential oil (your choice)
2 Tbsp white craft glue cookie cutters or molds
straws
decorating materials
TIP: USE THE ESSENTIAL OIL OF YOUR CHOICE. TRY CINNAMON TO BRING OUT THE CINNAMON SCENT, OR APPLE TO MAKE APPLE-CINNAMON SCENTED CINNAMON ORNAMENTS. VANILLA-CINNAMON IS NICE, TOO!

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine cinnamon and cloves. Add the applesauce, essential oil, and glue.
  • 2. Knead in bowl for a few minutes, until you have a firm, pliable dough. Add more cinnamon if the dough is too wet, more applesauce if it's too dry.
  • 3. Dust your work surface with cinnamon (just as you would with flour for regular cookies). Roll the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters, or press into a cookie mold. For molds, press dough into mold, smooth with rolling pin, remove, and cut away extra dough.
  • 4. While still moist, cut a hole in the top of each ornament with the end of a straw for hanging. Place ornaments on paper towels and air dry for several days. Carefully flip them several times while drying so they won't bend or warp.
  • 5. In a hurry? Instead of air drying, bake ornaments at 200 degrees F for about 3 hours, turning occasionally. Decorate!

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: For the best flavor and texture, use a combination of tart and sweet apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples: This will help the applesauce cook evenly and prevent the peels from becoming tough.
  • Use a variety of spices: In addition to cinnamon, you can also add spices like nutmeg, cloves, or allspice to your applesauce.
  • Sweeten the applesauce to taste: You can use sugar, honey, or maple syrup to sweeten your applesauce. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Cook the applesauce until it reaches your desired consistency: If you like chunky applesauce, cook it for a shorter amount of time. If you prefer smooth applesauce, cook it for longer.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon applesauce is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a good source of fiber and vitamin C, and it can be made with a variety of different apples and spices.
