• 1 cup flour
• Pinch baking soda
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 egg well-beaten
• 1-1/4 cup milk
• 2 tablespoons melted shortening
• 1/2 cup mashed sweet potato, cooked

Method

In a large bowl, mix together flour, soda, sugar and spices.

In a separate bowl, combine egg, shortening, sweet potato and milk.  Stir well to combine, then add to flour mixture, beating until smooth.

Cook on a very hot, lightly greased griddle.  When bubbles appear at the edges, flip pancakes. 

This is especially nice when given a sprinkle of confectioner's sugar.
