1 scoop Cocoa Hx

HEALTHY HOLIDAY LATKES
2 ½ cups shredded potatoes (regular or sweet), bonus if you can get this already shredded
2 ½ cups shredded zucchini
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup Plant Protein Powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
3 eggs
Sea salt and fresh cracked pepper taste
4 Apples
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/3 cup Beets Hx
Pre-heat oven to 350′. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Core and slice apples into 36-40, or 10 equal slices per apple. Put onto baking sheet and lightly sprinkle with a dash of sea salt.
Put shredded potatoes and zucchini into a cheesecloth and squeeze out water into a bowl or sink. Get as much water out as the drier you get the potatoes and zucchini the better. Once this is completed, put dry potatoes and zucchini into a dry, large bowl.
In a separate bowl combine all-purpose flour, Plant Protein Powder, baking powder, salt and pepper and mix until combined. Set aside.
In another bowl, add eggs and beat with a fork. Add to potatoes and zucchini. Toss together. Add dry ingredients and mix everything until well combined.
Form mixture into 16-18 equal sized patties (will look like haystacks). Put into an air fryer at 375′ for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
While these are air frying, put the apples into the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until soft yet cuttable.
While everything is cooking, mix together the Greek yogurt and Beets Hx until well combined.
Once everything is fully cooked, top latkes with a dollop of yogurt and top with 2 baked apple slices. Serve and enjoy!

1 scoop Oranges Hx
