I've been holding onto this for a long for now, guys, and I am really excited to finally show you! See, I made this back in July, when my mom came for a visit. She had once eaten some sweet potato pancakes at a restaurant, and apparently they were life-altering good. And she wanted me to re-create them. She also wanted them to be healthy.
While these pancakes were not the life-altering ones my mom was dreaming of, these were in fact VERY good! I liked the combination of the sweet potato with the buckwheat pancake mix and the spices. These are very easy to throw together (as long as you have cooked sweet potato on hand). I also really liked the syrup that Weight Watchers suggested with these. It is very different than just straight maple syrup, but very tasty. I encourage you to give them a try and tell me what you think!
