To mash the sweet potato, take 1 medium sweet potato and cut into big chunks. Boil for approximately 20 – 25 minutes, or until soft. Drain the sweet potato chunks and mash with a fork or potato masher.
Combine all ingredients in large mixing bowl and stir until well combined.
Measure about ¼ cup batter and pour onto oiled skillet or griddle. Cook over medium heat until bubbles start to form at the top of the pancakes (about 2-3 minutes). Flip the pancake and cook for another minute, make sure the pancake does not start to burn.
