My grandmother made the best potato pancakes. And my mother made pretty good ones, too. My mother hand-grated the potatoes until she got a food processor, then she used that. I like my pancakes with fresh ground pepper and nothing else. The plate of food looks so wonderful, it’s making me want potato pancakes right now!
This looks AMAZING. I love potatoes in any form. My grandma didn’t cook much for me, but I do remember she loved 3 musketeers bars… maybe I should veganize those in her memory.
How cool that P can make kartoffelpuffer just like your grandmother’s! That is awesome, I always drain my potatoes to make pancakes, but never so much. I will be draining the life out of those potatoes next time!
I’m so glad P was able to recreate them for you! Potato pancakes are one of my favorite comfort foods & I love how beautiful and easy these seem. What a treat!
I so wish I had potatoes on hand, just so that I could make these pancakes right now. But then I would probably eat way too many of these in a single sitting!
What a sweet post, Mihl! I miss my Grams so, so much. She died 4 years ago. She wasn’t much of a cook at all (she believed in eating out & my uncle who lived with her joked that they only time he got a home cooked meal was when my Mum was there on a visit to cook for him!).
I love potato pancakes so much, I haven’t made any this autumn, but now I’m craving some!
Many thanks for sharing this. I love german recipes with potatoes and I already know this one will make me feel happy ! Thank you for your gorgeous blog !
Yay for Oma’s potato pancakes! That P is quite a gem. :D I am totally intrigued by the olive sour cream, too–it sounds fantastic and my head is reeling with all the possible uses for it!
This looks like a wonderful recreation. I feel the same way about some of my grandmother’s recipes – even though my mom makes them too, it’s just not the same. She died at the ripe old age of 94, but when I only known my husband for three months. I wish they could have met. I have only veganized her vegetables – but she loved a breakfast casserole, a green Jello salad, and some other things I haven’t even thought about veganizing.
These look to die for. Thanks for sharing the recipe– I’ll be making these soon!

Oh, a new (to me) and certainly delicious way to enjoy potatoes! I’ve got to try these soon!

I am the same way with my grandmother! No one can do it like she did. I miss her. This post was so sweet. I am sure she would have loved it. :)
How delicious! Love it with the mushrooms instead of the usual savory route. What a sweet post.
For me, grilled cheeses are the ultimate comfort food, but I haven’t attempted a vegan version yet…

Ahh, the mysteries of the universe that we’ll never answer.
I want that plate of food in my belly now!
You aren’t kidding with that caption, a perfect meal. My goodness!
The pancakes look awesome! In combination with the sausages and mushrooms, it does sound just about perfect.

Mihl, this looks SPECTACULAR! Seriously good. I also love the new layout of your blog.
Awesome! I totally want to try these.
Wow, looks amazing! I haven’t had Potato Pancakes since going vegan in 2008, how I miss them! I’m bookmarking this recipe for sure!!
