Get out of your pancake rut with this easy recipe for Sweet Potato Pancakes! These pancakes are fluffy, naturally sweet, and filled with nutrition, all thanks to the humble sweet potato.

This sweet potato pancake recipe is so simple to make. First, whisk together the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Then combine the sweet potato purée, eggs, milk, apple cider vinegar, and melted butter in another bowl. Finally, add the sweet potato mixture to the dry ingredients and gently fold to combine. For the fluffiest pancakes, be sure to mix this sweet potato pancake batter as minimally as possible. To cook, heat a griddle or non-stick skillet. Working in batches, drop portions of the pancake batter onto the heated pan and cook until the bubbles appear on the surface. Flip and cook until the pancakes are set throughout. Serve warm.
To make the Sweet Potato Pancakes, you will need the following ingredients:
Whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt in a large mixing bowl.
Combine 1 cup sweet potato puree, 2 eggs, 1 ½ cups milk, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and ¼ cup melted butter in another bowl. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Preheat your griddle or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with oil. Drop portions of the pancake batter onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes or until the bubbles form on the surface. Flip and cook until set throughout and golden, about 1-2 minutes. Repeat with the remaining pancake batter.
Serve warm with a drizzle of maple syrup and a dollop of Greek yogurt if you wish. Enjoy!
