Sweet Potato Choc Chip Pancakes

Okay. I think the name of these explains it itself. Like, what more could you want in life? Sweet potato IS life.

These were so moist and sweet and delicious and ugh just give them a go will you? You won't regret it I promise.

Ingredients: 
1/2 cup buckwheat flour 
1 tsp baking powder 
1 tbsp maca powder (optional but recommended, I use this one 
1/2 cup steamed and mashed sweet potato (peeled before cooked) 
1 tbsp vanilla essence 
2 flax eggs (2 tbsp flax to 6 tbsp water, left in fridge overnight) 
1 mashed very ripe banana
1/2 cup plantbased milk 
Cinnamon, to taste 

Method: 
In a bowl combine all the dry ingredients and mix to combine. At the same time, chop your peeled sweet potato into chunks and steam it until soft. Then, put it through the blender until smooth. Put in bowl with dry ingredients and add mashed banana, flax eggs and milk. 

Heat a non-stick pan with your oil of choice (I love coconut oil) over medium heat, and one by one cook your pancakes until all cooked. Stack em up, and destroy them! It's easier than you think, especially if you add all your favourite toppings. But be prepared for a large portion, that's the only way I'll eat my pancakes. Hehe.
