Remove the pancakes from the skillet and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Keep warm in a low oven (200°F) while frying the remaining pancakes. (Cook time: 2 minutes)
For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of smoked paprika to the dry ingredients.
Serve these pancakes with a dollop of sour cream or Greek yogurt, a sprinkle of chopped cilantro, or a drizzle of maple syrup for a sweet and savory experience.
The sweet potato mixture can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Be sure to stir well before frying.
To make these pancakes gluten-free, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free blend.
If you don't have curry powder on hand, use a mixture of turmeric, coriander, cumin, and fenugreek.
