Description

Delightful Sweet Potato Pancakes that bridge indulgence and nourishment, perfect for creating cherished breakfast memories.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium Sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup All-purpose flour (or whole wheat/flour alternative)
  • 2 large Eggs (or flax eggs for vegan option)
  • 1 cup Milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 tsp Baking powder
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare your sweet potatoes: Boil or steam them until tender, then mash until smooth.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients: Whisk together flour, baking powder, spices, and salt in a bowl.
  3. Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix mashed sweet potatoes, eggs, and milk until well blended.
  4. Combine mixtures: Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined; a few lumps are fine.
  5. Heat your skillet: Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat, lightly greased with butter or oil.
  6. Cook the pancakes: Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake; cook until bubbles form, about 2-3 minutes, then flip until golden brown.
  7. Serve warm: Stack and serve with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or yogurt.

Notes

Let the batter rest for 10 minutes for fluffier pancakes. If you prefer thicker pancakes, add a bit more flour.
