Ingredients
2 large sweet potatoes1/2 cup whole milk1 tbsp salted butter1/2 cup corn meal1 large egg1 tbsp ginger1 tbsp cinnamon1/2 cup brown sugar1/2 tbsp nutmeg
Directions
-Put a pot of water on the stove, in order to start boiling while prepping.
-Peel sweet potatoes to remove skin.
-Dice sweet potatoes into small cubes (the smaller the cubes, the faster they will boil).
-Place all cubes into boiling water. Allow to boil, uncovered, until soft and mushy (usually about 10 minutes).
-Drain boiled sweet potatoes and place into a large mixing bowl.
-Add all dry ingrediants, except the corn meal. Mash together well, with a potato masher, until fairly smooth.
-Add milk, butter, egg, and corn meal. Mix together well (best with a mixer or a fork) until as smooth as possible.
-Heat up large frying pan and spray with non stick spray or, for best taste, add a 1/2 tbsp of butter. Turn heat down to medium high.
-Spoon out as many pancakes as possible onto frying pan (I make mine about the size of dollar pancakes).
-Flip cakes when browned on the bottom.
-Allow to cool and enjoy!
