Sweet Potato and Sage Pancakes image

These wheat-free pancakes are sweetened with nothing but homemade, sugar-free applesauce-but a drizzle of maple syrup to serve certainly isn't a bad idea.

Yield Makes 6 pancakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons ground flaxseed
1/3 cup hot water
1 cup firmly packed shredded unpeeled sweet potato
3/4 cup Homemade Applesauce
2 tablespoons unrefined extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 teaspoons dried sage
1 cup brown rice flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flaxseed with water and set aside for 5 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, mix sweet potato, applesauce, olive oil, lemon juice, sage, and the flaxseed slurry.
  • In another medium bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir well to combine.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease it with ghee or olive oil.
  • Scoop out slightly less than 1/2 cup batter and roll it in your palms to form a ball. Place it on the baking sheet and press down to form a 1/4-inch-thick pancake. Repeat the process.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until brown.
  • Serve topped with a dollop of coconut yogurt or whipped coconut cream, a drizzle of Grade B maple syrup, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
  • Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet with a dash of ghee.
