Categories     Breakfast     Kid-Friendly

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup water
1/2 cup sweet potato puree
1/4 tsp. cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice (optional)
1 cup pancake mix
Nonstick cooking spray
1 Tbsp. canola or vegetable oil
Pure maple syrup, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare sweet potato puree: 1. Do not peel. Cut into quarters, if steaming. Leave whole, if roasting; 2. Steam for 40 to 45 minutes. Roast at 400° for 50 to 60 minutes; 3. Scoop out the flesh and puree in a food processor or blender. In a large bowl, mix the water, sweet potato puree, and cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice, if using. Add the pancake mix and stir just to combine-the batter should be lumpy. Coat a griddle or large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set it over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the oil, and spoon the batter onto the griddle or pan, using 1/4 cup batter for each pancake. Cook until bubbles form on top of the pancakes and the batter is set, 2 to 3 minutes. Then use a spatula to flip the pancakes and cook them until golden brown on the other side, 2 to 3 minutes.
