  • 2 large eggs Bind the ingredients
  • 1 cup gluten free flour (or oat flour) Ensure gluten-free if necessary
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder For fluffiness
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon For flavor
  • 1 pinch salt Enhances sweetness
Optional for Moisture
  • 1 splash dairy-free milk Almond milk or coconut milk recommended

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cook your sweet potato by baking or microwaving, then mash until mostly smooth.
  2. Add eggs to the mashed sweet potato and whisk until combined.
  3. Stir in gluten-free flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add dairy-free milk if the batter is too thick.
Cooking
  1. Heat a nonstick skillet on medium and lightly oil, if necessary.
  2. Scoop batter to form small pancakes and cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until golden.
  3. Let pancakes cool briefly before stacking.

Notes

Resting the batter for 3 to 5 minutes helps with texture; keep pancakes small for better cooking.
