I previously shared a recipe I learned in Costa Rica for making Grain-Free Yucca Buns. Also on that trip to Costa Rica I came accross sweet potato flour.

Sweet Potato Pancake Recipe
Ingredients
1 cup sweet potato flour
1/3 cup all purpose gluten free flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 eggs
1/2 cup almond milk (or other type of milk)
2 Tbsp Olive Oil

On a medium-hot griddle, ladle out pancakes in large spoon sizes. When bubbling, flip. Let cook thoroughly as the sweet potato is denser than other flours and takes a few more seconds.
