3 sweet potatoes (about 2 1/4 pounds)
2 Russet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
Zest of 2 oranges
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Canola or safflower oil
Toppings: applesauce, goat cheese, or sour cream

1
Preheat oven to 400u00b0. Wrap 1 sweet potato in aluminum foil, and bake at 400u00b0 for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until tender when pierced with fork. Unwrap and cool to room temperature.
2
Reduce oven temperature to 250u00b0. Peel and grate remaining potatoes with large side of a box grater or grating blade of a food processor. Combine grated potato, eggs, and next 5 ingredients in large bowl. Slip cooked sweet potato flesh out of skin, and stir thoroughly into potato mixture; discard skin.
3
Heat enough oil in large skillet to cover bottom of pan. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls in hot oil, and fry over medium heat until golden brown and crispy, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan, and place on a baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining latkes, adding more oil to pan if needed. Keep batches of latkes warm in oven on a wire rack placed on a baking sheet. Serve warm with applesauce, soft goat cheese, or sour cream.
