I made these pancakes again this morning and I’m so addicted! Although I may have a ton of sweet potato recipes on my blog, in my opinion, there’s no such thing as too many. If you’re like me and eat a ton of sweet potatoes it’s likely you’ll have some left over in your fridge at some point. So, put it to good use and mix up a batch of these for your weekend breakfast!
This gluten, dairy, and refined sugar-free recipe uses minimal ingredients and is as clean as pancakes get with just sweet potato, egg, almond milk, oat flour, maple syrup, and some spices. The added toppings are not only endless but a bonus! Our favorite way to serve them is with some dairy-free chocolate, banana, and maple syrup- yum!

- 1/4 c maple syrup + more for serving
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

- 1 tsp cinnamon
- pinch of sea salt
- ghee or butter for pan
INSTRUCTIONS
- Mash the sweet potato in a bowl.
- Whisk in the egg, almond milk, syrup, and vanilla.
- Add in the flour, flax, baking powder, cinnamon, and sea salt and mix to combine.
- Heat ghee/butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.

Storing: pancakes will keep best for up to 3 days in fridge in an airtight container. To reheat, the best method is in the toaster/toasted oven.
*Recipe note: This is a great way to use up leftover sweet potato but if you don’t have any on hand simply pierce a potato with a fork and either microwave or roast until soft.
To make waffles: follow instructions up to step 2 and then cook as directed per your particular iron.
