These are sensational pancakes. Not much more work than everyday pancakes and definitely worth making for a special occasion (or just everyday).

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups brown sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 1/2 cups milk

3 eggs

6 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (12 ounce) can sweet potatoes, mashed (canned or frozen)

1/2 cup butter (at room temperature)

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup toasted pecans

Directions:

1. To make pecan honey butter: Combine butter, honey and toasted pecans.
2. Set aside.
3. To make the pancakes: Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
4. Stir in milk and beaten eggs.
5. Add oil and vanilla.
6. Beat until smooth.
7. Fold in the mashed sweet potatoes (should result in a lumpy texture).
8. In a small nonstick frying pan, heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil over medium heat.
9. Pour in batter to desired size.
10. Cook until dark brown (sweet potato pancakes take a little longer to cook than regular pancakes because of the density of the sweet potatoes).
11. Serve pancakes warm with pecan honey butter.
