What’s for brunch today?! – Sweet potaot pancakes
Sweet potato pancakes
Guess what?! I found a recipe and pictures on my computer I actually hadn’t published yet. So despite me not being able to do much cooking at the moment (read this post to find out why) I’ve got a delicious recipe for you today. Today I am sharing one of my favourite brunch recipes with you: Sweet potato pancakes! I love making these when ever I’ve got some more time on my hands in the morning.
Today I am going to show you how to create a sweet version with apple-nut compote as a topping. The apples and nuts perfectly complement the sweetness of the sweet potatoes, just the perfect wintery brunch breakfast.
Imagine sitting inside, cuddled up in a blanket, looking out into a snowy winter day, while eating a stack of scrumptious sweet potato pancakes. Sounds like the perfect winter morning, doesn’t it? So let’s get cooking!
Sweet potato pancakes

- 100 g sweet potato puree
- 50 g spelt flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp vanilla
- 1 dash of salt
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tbs maple syrup
- 1 dl sparkling water
- coconut oil
- for the Apple-Nut compote:
- 1-2 sour apples, cubed
- 1 handful pecans, roughly chopped
