Dry Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare Sweet Potatoes

    If you haven't already, peel and chop the sweet potatoes. Boil or steam until tender, then mash until smooth. Measure out 1 cup for the pancakes.

Mixing Ingredients

  1. 2

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar until well combined.

  2. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, mix the mashed sweet potatoes, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until smooth and well combined.

  3. 4

    Combine Both Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Cooking

  1. 5

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little oil or butter to grease the surface.

  2. 6

    Cook the Pancakes

    Pour 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Remove pancakes from the skillet and keep warm. Serve with your favorite toppings, such as maple syrup, yogurt, or fresh fruit.
