Instructions
Mix the Batter
Whisk together flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl whisk together sweet potato, milk, eggs, and maple syrup until smooth. Fold wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just combined, do not overmix.
Heat the Pan
Heat a non-stick griddle or large skillet over medium heat and lightly coat with butter or cooking spray. The pan is ready when a drop of water sizzles immediately on contact.
Cook the Pancakes
Pour approximately one quarter cup of batter per pancake onto the griddle. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until bubbles form on the surface and edges look set, then flip and cook for 2 more minutes.
Serve Warm
Transfer cooked pancakes to a warm plate and repeat with remaining batter. Serve immediately with a generous drizzle of maple syrup, a pat of butter, and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
