Directions:

Wash and grate sweet potatoes (skin on) in a food processor.

In a large bowl, combine Nearly Normal All Purpose Flour, sugar, baking powder and spices.  Add in the eggs and milk to the dry ingredients, then add the grated potatoes to the batter.  If it is too thick, add more milk.

Heat the oil to 375-400F in an electric skillet or deep skillet over a medium high flame.  When hot, drop approximately 2 tablespoons of batter in circles and thin by spreading with the backside of a spoon.  Cook each pancake until lightly browned on each side, flipping to cook both sides evenly.  Remove with a slotted spatula onto a paper towel lined plate to cool. Serve warm with your accompaniment of choice.

• Applesauce
