If you have leftover baked sweet potatoes, you will love making these quick and fluffy kaniwa flour pancakes. They come with the classic combination of warming spices that go well with sweet potatoes, such as cinnamon and nutmeg. On top of that, they are enriched with kaniwa's nutrients, including protein and iron.

  2. In another bowl, mix together the milk, apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, egg, coconut oil, and sweet potato.(3 minutes)
  3. Add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and give it a gentle mix. Don't over-mix.(2 minutes)
  4. Fry the pancakes (1/2 cup of batter per pancake) on a lightly greased skillet about 3 minutes per side. Enjoy warm!
