Sweet Potato Pancakes

 

I had some left over cooked sweet potatoes from the Farro Burgers so one morning I thought I should be able to easily get some sort of pancake out of it.  Turns out it is super easy and pretty much only requires the addition of eggs.  Plus other options if you like.

2. Heat oil (can use coconut oil), butter or cooking spray over medium low heat on a flat pan
3. Spoon the sweet potato mixture on the heated pan approximately just under 1/4 cup
4. Once bubbles start forming on the top side of the pancake and underside gets lightly golden brown, ~5 minutes, flip the cake.  Continue cooking on other side for an additional 5 minutes until cooked through.
5. Optional toppings: butter, nut butter, maple syrup.
