German Potato Pancakes, or Kartoffelpuffer, are a beloved comfort food in Germany and beyond. With their crispy, golden-brown exterior and tender, savory interior, these pancakes are perfect as a side dish or even as the star of the meal. Traditionally, they are served with applesauce for a sweet contrast or with sour cream for a tangy finish.
