Ingredients

Scale

3/4 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
2 large eggs
2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil)
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Pinch of salt

Instructions

Prepare sweet potatoes by washing, peeling, and steaming them until fork-tender (approximately 15 minutes). Mash until smooth.
In a bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potatoes, milk, eggs, and melted butter until well combined.
Sift in flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt; gently fold until just mixed.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and grease lightly. Pour batter onto the skillet; cook until bubbles form on top (3-4 minutes).
Flip carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown on both sides.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings.
