SWEET POTATO BANANA PANCAKES



Sweet Potato Banana Pancakes image

I fell in love with the sweet potato pancakes at Cracker Barrel®. I decided that I wanted to come up with my own, healthier version. This is what I put together, and it has been a hit every single time I have made them! Not only are they delicious, but they are also very good for you. Win win! These pancakes are loaded with all-around nutrition and tasted delicious with pretty much any topping. After you are done, just add the topping of your choice. I like honey, agave, or the Maple Agave Syrup from Trader Joe's®. Enjoy!

5-INGREDIENT SWEET POTATO BANANA PANCAKES



5-Ingredient Sweet Potato Banana Pancakes image

Banana, sweet potato, nut butter, eggs and cinnamon are all you need to make these simple, real food pancakes come together!

Provided by Danielle

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2/3 cup sweet potato, cooked and well mashed
1 banana, well mashed
2 eggs
2 tablespoons any nut butter, warmed
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients in a medium mixing bowl until well mixed with no large clumps. The consistency should be perfect for pancakes, but if it seems too thick for you, add a couple tablespoons of water or almond milk.
  • Heat a large skillet (or griddle) over low-medium heat. Wait about 2 minutes for the pan to heat up and then coat with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Spoon approximately 1/3 cup of batter on to skillet or griddle for each pancake. I cook my pancakes two at a time since I don't have a griddle. Let the pancakes cook for approximately 3-4 minutes. Flip when bubbles form on the surface and do not fill with batter, and the edges are no longer shiny. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, checking the bottom for golden brown color.
  • Repeat until your batter is gone, spraying the pan between each set of pancakes.
  • Top with warm nut butter and maple syrup. Store in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed
4 bananas, unpeeled
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup honey
Kosher salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes all over with a fork, put them in a roasting pan and roast for 30 minutes. Toss the bananas into the pan and continue roasting for 10 to 15 minutes, until both the bananas and potatoes are very soft. Remove the pan from the oven but don't turn the oven off.
  • When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Peel the bananas and add them to the bowl along with 1 stick of the butter, and the honey. Season with salt and beat vigorously with a wooden spoon until everything's well combined and the mixture is fluffy. Spoon into an oven-proof serving bowl and smooth the top.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, use your fingers to rub together the remaining stick of butter, the brown sugar, flour, and pecans until the mixture is the consistency of coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the sweet potatoes and return to the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes, until the crumbs are golden. Serve hot.
