Preheat oven to 300. Place baking sheet in oven. Combine beets, carrots and leeks or onions in large bowl. Mix in egg, salt and pepper. Add flour; stir to blend well.
Heat 1 1/2 tbsp. oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Using 1/3 cup beet mixture for each pancake, drop 4 pancakes into the skillet. Flatten each into 3 inch round. Cook until brown and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.
