Yam it up.

Yam Pancakes

• I took one leftover yam from dinner (you can leave these in the flesh, and put them in the fridge.  They are great as leftovers or to use in recipes)
• I used
• 1/2 cup of the cooked yam scooped out from it’s skin.
• 1 cup low fat milk
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 1 egg
• I blended all ingredients in a blender (Magic Bullet Actually), until it was smooth and runny.
• Then I put in a bowl:
• 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/4 tsp. salt
• Then added the liquid ingredients to the dry.  You can add more milk if you need to for the consistency of pancake batter. I like mine thin, so it pours easily and cooks thoroughly.
• Then pour batter onto a hot griddle.  Flip pancake when it begins to bubble.
• Then EAT! MMMM
