Instructions
- To a large mixing bowl, combine 1 tablespoon garbanzo bean flour and 1 tablespoon water to make a paste.

Add to the mixing bowl, along with the almond flour, other tablespoon of garbanzo bean flour, lemon zest and juice, green onion, dill, parsley, garlic powder, baking powder, black pepper and salt. You want to add the salt last, right before you are going to shape the latkes.
- Combine well, and scoop out a small meatball size of mix. Roll gently into a ball and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Heat a nonstick skillet (cast iron works best), with a good amount of cooking oil (recommend ghee or vegan butter), once oil is hot put latke on the skillet and press it down with spatula or fork until flat. Cook until the underside is crispy but not dark (3-4min), flip and repeat.
- Meanwhile, to make the herby sour cream, add everything to a bowl and mix to combine. Set aside until ready to use.
- Serve these hot with a dollop of the herby sour cream.
