These fluffy sweet potato pancakes are a delightful twist on the classic breakfast favorite, offering a warm and comforting flavor.
Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.
Sift the dry ingredients together to ensure a smooth batter.
In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, mashed sweet potato, and melted butter.
Ensure the sweet potato is smoothly mashed for a consistent batter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Heat a lightly greased griddle over medium heat. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter for each pancake.
Use a ladle or measuring cup for even-sized pancakes.
Cook until bubbles form on the surface and the edges look set, then flip and cook the other side until golden brown.
Wait until the bubbles pop and the edges are dry before flipping.
Serve the pancakes warm with your favorite toppings.
Keep pancakes warm in a low oven until ready to serve.
