Sweet Potato Sage Pancakes Recipes

SWEET POTATO SAGE PANCAKES

Steps:

• Melt the ghee in a pan over medium-low heat. The key to paleo pancakes is making them on the smaller side, and cooking them low and slow!
• Add the cooked sweet potato, coconut milk, eggs and apple cider vinegar to your food processor. Pulse until combined. Add the coconut flour, baking soda, garlic powder and salt. Pulse again until combined, scraping down the sides if needed. Add the chopped sage and pulse again until combined. The batter will thicken as the coconut flour absorbs the liquid. **No food processor? No problem! Simply mix the dry ingredients in a bowl, and the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined.
• Use a ¼ cup measuring cup to scoop the batter into the pan. Use a spatula to spread the batter into a small, 3" circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom of the pancakes are lightly browned, then gently flip and continue to cook the other side until browned.
• Top with ghee, grassfed butter, or really whatever you'd like - enjoy!

SWEET POTATO PANCAKES

Steps:

• Coarsely grate sweet potatoes on the large holes of a box grater (or use a food processor fitted with a shredding blade). Transfer to a large bowl; stir in scallions, eggs, flour, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Using a packed 1/4-cup measure of potato mixture per pancake, shape into 12 mounds. With hands, form each into a firm ball; transfer to a baking sheet. With palm, flatten balls into 3/4-inch-thick cakes.
• In a large skillet, heat oil over medium until hot (see note, below). Using a metal spatula with a thin blade, carefully transfer 6 cakes to skillet; flatten to about 1/2 inch thick. Cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer pancakes to a paper-towel-lined plate; sprinkle with coarse salt. Repeat with remaining cakes. Serve immediately, with sour cream, if desired.
