German Potato Pancakes

2 eggs
2 T. all-purpose flour
1/4 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
6 medium potatoes, peeled and shredded
1/2 C. finely chopped onion
vegetable oil to coat the pan

In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Mix in potatoes and onion.

Heat oil in a large skillet or I used a large nonstick cooking griddle and just brushed a little oil on it. In batches, drop heaping tablespoons of the potato mixture onto the skillet. Press to flatten. Cook about 3 min. on each side, until cooked through and lightly browned. While waiting to complete the batches you can put the pancakes on a cookie sheet in a 250 degree oven to hold them until all are ready to serve. Top with applesauce and sour cream.
