Sweet Potato Pancakes

I mean there's pancakes for breakfast and then there's spiced sweet potato pancakes, with a scoop of clotted cream ice cream, drowning in maple syrup that are served up on a cold Winter's night in front of a roaring fire. I'll have that one, please.

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and grated
  • 120g self-raising flour
  • 2 medium free-range eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • small pinch of nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 60ml milk
  • 60ml butter, melted

In a large bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, flour, eggs, cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Mix well until a smooth batter forms.

Add the milk and melted butter to the bowl and mix until the batter is free of lumps.

Heat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat.

Scoop generous spoonfuls of the batter onto the pan and spread it evenly to form pancakes.

Cook the pancakes for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges start to dry.

Flip the pancakes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.

Serve the pancakes warm with your favourite toppings, such as maple syrup, butter, fresh fruit, or whipped cream.
