Frozen Baked Latkes

[deguspice]

For the second night of Passover, I made latkes from frozen hasbrown mix instead of grating and then squeezing out the excess water from the shredded potatoes. I like baking them instead of frying them because you don't have to deal with hot oil that spits and a house that smells of oil for days. This makes about 18 latkes.

If you like your latkes with a little bit of oil, you can grease the pan.

See, I might just have to do this if I'm ever called to make latkes. Luckily, I usually get assigned a dessert.
