10 Unique Latke Toppings That Go Beyond Sour Cream and Applesauce

Latkes, the beloved crispy potato pancakes traditionally served during Hanukkah, are often topped with sour cream or applesauce. While those classics never disappoint, there’s a whole world of flavorful toppings that can take your latkes to the next level. Here are ten inventive ideas to dress up your latkes and delight your taste buds!

1. Smoked Salmon and Dill Cream Cheese

Top your latkes with a generous smear of dill-infused cream cheese, a slice of smoked salmon, and a sprinkle of capers. This twist brings a luxurious, savory touch inspired by a classic bagel and lox.

2. Spicy Sriracha Mayo and Scallions

Add some heat to your latkes with a drizzle of sriracha mayo. The creamy spice pairs beautifully with the crispy potatoes. Finish with thinly sliced scallions for a burst of freshness.

3. Avocado Mash with Lime and Cilantro

Smash ripe avocados with a squeeze of lime juice, salt, and a handful of chopped cilantro. Spread this on your latkes for a creamy, zesty take with a Latin flair.

4. Mushroom and Caramelized Onion Ragout

Slow-cook mushrooms and onions in butter until deeply caramelized, then spoon this savory mixture onto your latkes. It’s rich, earthy, and completely irresistible.

5. Fig Jam and Goat Cheese Crumble

Spread a thin layer of fig jam on the latke, then sprinkle crumbled goat cheese over the top. The sweetness of the jam contrasts wonderfully with the tangy creaminess of the cheese.

6. Korean Kimchi and Sesame Aioli

Add a spicy, fermented crunch with a spoonful of kimchi, then drizzle with sesame aioli or a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. This fusion approach brings a bold, unforgettable flavor.

7. Shredded Brisket with BBQ Sauce

Slow-cooked, tender brisket piled onto a crispy latke and drizzled with smoky BBQ sauce creates the ultimate comfort food mashup. It’s savory, saucy, and downright delicious.

8. Beet Relish with Horseradish Cream

For a vibrant and earthy twist, try a beet relish topped with a dollop of horseradish cream. This combo brings a punch of color and a sharp flavor that cuts through the richness of the latke.

9. Pesto and Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

A smear of homemade or store-bought basil pesto topped with roasted cherry tomatoes brings a burst of freshness and Mediterranean charm to your plate.

10. Sweet Ricotta and Honey Drizzle

End on a sweet note by spreading creamy ricotta over the latke, then drizzling with honey and a pinch of sea salt. It’s an unexpectedly delightful dessert spin on the traditional potato pancake.

These unique toppings prove that latkes can be a versatile canvas for flavors both bold and subtle. Whether you lean toward savory, spicy, or sweet, there’s a perfect combination waiting to become your new favorite. This Hanukkah—or any time of year—dress up your latkes and savor the delicious creativity!
