Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons ground flaxseed
  • 1/3 cup hot water
  • 1 cup firmly packed shredded unpeeled sweet potato
  • 3/4 cup
  • 2 tablespoons unrefined extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoons dried sage
  • 1 cup brown rice flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flaxseed with water and set aside for 5 minutes.
  • In a medium bowl, mix sweet potato, applesauce, olive oil, lemon juice, sage, and the flaxseed slurry.
  • In another medium bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir well to combine.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease it with ghee or olive oil.
  • Scoop out slightly less than 1/2 cup batter and roll it in your palms to form a ball. Place it on the baking sheet and press down to form a 1/4-inch-thick pancake. Repeat the process.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until brown.
  • Serve topped with a dollop of coconut yogurt or whipped coconut cream, a drizzle of Grade B maple syrup, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
  • Keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet with a dash of ghee.
