Apple latkes

Ingredients:

• 2 apples (225 g) to make 1 cup of grated apples
• 1 egg category CO
• 2/3 cup natural yogurt
• 1 cup wheat flour
• 1/2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
• 2 tbsp. ultrafine sugar
• Vegetable oil for frying
• Maple syrup (or powdered sugar and ground cinnamon) for serving

Preparation:

1. Beat the egg with the yogurt and milk (or just the yogurt if you're using full-fat plain yogurt). In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and sugar. Peel the apple, cut it into quarters, remove the core, and then grate it. I use a food processor, but I think a Microplane or other large-bladed grater would be easier.
   
   Pour the yogurt mixture into a bowl with flour, add the grated apples and mix.
2. Add 0.5 cm of oil to a frying pan and place it on the heat. Using a spoon (I use a round soup spoon), drop the batter into the sizzling oil. Use a silicone spatula (the one you use to keep the batter from spreading) to remove the batter from the spoon and press the pancakes into small balls. Don't worry if they aren't perfectly round; I like them a little frayed and wobbly.
   
   Fry for 1-2 minutes, until the pancakes are golden brown on the bottom. You'll see them starting to brown from the top. Flip the pancakes with 2 metal spatulas and cook for another minute on the other side.
   
   Transfer the pancakes to a paper towel-lined tray to absorb excess oil and continue cooking until the batter is used up. Drizzle with maple syrup.
