Ingredients:

• 1 medium sweet potato, baked and cooled (about 8 ounces of baked sweet potato)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
• Pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)

Directions:

1. Prepare the Sweet Potato:

Start by peeling the baked sweet potato and mashing it in a bowl until smooth and free of lumps.

2. Blend the Batter:

In a blender or food processor, combine the mashed sweet potato, eggs, salt, and cinnamon (if using). Blend the mixture until smooth and fully combined into a thick batter.

3. Heat the Skillet:

Heat an 8-inch nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Allow the skillet to get fully heated before adding the batter to ensure even cooking.

4. Cook the Pancakes:

Scoop 1/4 cup of the batter into the hot skillet, gently spreading it into a pancake shape. Cook the pancake for 3 minutes without disturbing it to allow the first side to set and become golden brown.

5. Flip and Finish Cooking:

Carefully flip the pancake using a thin spatula, and cook for an additional 3 minutes on the other side until cooked through. Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the pancakes are cooked.

6. Serve Warm:

Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings. These pancakes pair well with maple syrup, fresh fruit, nut butter, or a sprinkle of cinnamon and sugar.

Quick Tips:

• Make-Ahead Option: You can bake the sweet potato ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to make the pancakes.
• Topping Ideas: For added flavor, try topping the pancakes with Greek yogurt, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
