| Sweet Potato Pancakes |
Ingredients
2 small sweet potatoes
1-1/4 cups plain flour
3 heaped tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 eggs
1-1/2 cups milk (I used almond milk)
50g butter - melted
Peel and cut the sweet potato into small chunks. Place the pieces into a saucepan, cover with water and bring to the boil. Cook the potatoes for approx. 15mins until tender. Drain, mash and set aside.
Sift the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg together into a bowl.
In a separate bowl, gently whisk the eggs, then stir in the sweet potato, milk and butter until well combined.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry and fold together until all the flour is mixed in and a batter is formed. It may be slightly lumpy but that's ok.
Heat a lightly greased pan and pour a spoonful of mixture in. (I use a soup ladle for this.) Cook until bubbles start forming on the top of the pancake. Flip it over and cook a minute or so longer. Transfer to a warm plate. Repeat until all the mixture is used up.
Serve as a side, or underneath, stir-fried veggies. Or you can simply eat them with butter and syrup, alongside a cup if tea.
Enjoy!
