Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 small sweet potato
  • 2 eggs

Optional Ingredients

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sweet Potato: Rinse the sweet potato thoroughly and pierce it several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.
  2. Microwave Cook: Place the sweet potato on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high for about 3 minutes, or until the sweet potato is tender when pierced with a fork.
  3. Peel and Cool: Allow the sweet potato to cool enough to handle safely, then peel off the skin carefully.
  4. Blend Ingredients: Place the sweet potato flesh into a blender. Add the eggs and, if using, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Blend the mixture until smooth and uniform.
  5. Heat Skillet: Preheat a large skillet over medium-low heat and coat it with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  6. Cook Pancakes: Pour the batter into small 2-inch diameter circles on the skillet. Cook each pancake for 2-3 minutes until the bottoms are golden brown, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  7. Serve: Remove from skillet and serve warm, topped with butter, maple syrup, and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

Notes

  • Microwave wattages vary; adjust cooking time if the sweet potato is not tender after 3 minutes.
  • Adding vanilla extract and cinnamon is optional but enhances flavor.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or well-oiled pan to prevent sticking.
  • Try adding a pinch of salt or a sweetener like honey if you prefer sweeter pancakes.
  • Leftover pancakes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheated gently in a skillet or microwave.
