Sweet Potato Pancakes

Whenever I make pancakes I almost always but some fruit in them usually apples or bananas. I have a bunch of sweet potatoes thanks to Thanksgiving sales. First I cooked the potatoes in the oven the night before so they would be ready to chop up for breakfast. I think you could mash the potatoes up and use them as an ingredient in the pancakes like pumpkin but I wanted bites of sweet potato.

Gretchen likes to avoid veggies at all costs so I'm constantly trying to sneak them in to foods. I took my basic pancake recipe, used whole wheat flour instead of white and added the sweet potato chunks. I used 2 medium sweet potatoes. Gretchen ate them and I thought they were great but maybe more of a dinner pancake instead of breakfast. Would be good with some sausage and roasted asparagus for a complete meal.
