Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Boil or bake the sweet potatoes until tender. Allow them to cool slightly, then peel and mash until smooth.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.

  3. 3

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  4. 4

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  5. 5

    Cook the Pancakes

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Melt a small amount of butter. Pour in 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve warm with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
