Sweet potato pancakes

The ultimate comfort food made healthy and satisfying! :) these pancakes are not too sweet, super squishy and fluffy AND 100% guilt free. Plus they're super easy to make from bog-standard cupboard ingredients. Yasssssss. Happy nomming...

You will need:
1 medium orange flesh sweet potato
2 eggs
1 tsp sweetener (I use Candarel powder)
1 small pot greek yogurt (I use 0% Total)
+ a banana, blueberries, nuts or any toppings of your choice


Preparation:
1. Chuck the sweet potatoes in the microwave for 2 minutes, or until they're squishy and the skin easily peels off. Peel the skin and mash.
2. Beat the eggs and add to the sweet potato mash.
3. Add the sweetener and mix.
4. Pour 1/3 of the batter into a frying pan over low heat and cook for approx 3 minutes, or until you see bubbles forming on the surface. Flip and cook for 2 minutes on the other side. Do the same for the rest of the mixture until you have 3 pancakes.
5. Arrange between sandwiches of greek yogurt and add the toppings of your choice.
