SWEET POTATO PANCAKES

Ingredients

• 1 cup wholemeal flour • 2 tbsp brown sugar • 2 tsp baking powder • ½ tsp sea salt • ½ tsp pinch of nutmeg • ½ tsp cinnamon • ½ cup mashed sweet potatoes • 1 large egg • 1 cup soy milk • Coconut oil, for frying

Method

Sift all the wholemeal flour and combine with baking powder, brown sugar, sea salt, nutmeg and cinnamon.

In another bowl, beat the sweet potato, egg and milk.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet in three portions, mixing gently till a smooth consistency is achieved.

Grease a non- stick skillet lightly with some coconut oil, then cook 3 tablespoons of the batter at a time. Cook each side for 3- 5 minutes on low heat.

Serve with a fried egg and tomato sauce for a savoury twist or with some maple syrup and pecan butter for a sweet treat.
