So good! Next time I'll add a little sugar to the batter to sweeten them up a bit.

These were very good, but extremely salty! I'm going to halve or quarter the salt next time. I also added some cinnamon, but maybe I'll add some allspice next time too. Good recipe.

I made a couple changes, just for my tastes. I made the milk sour, using a tablespoon of vinegar per cup. This was not a good addition. If I made them again, I would stick with just plain whole milk. I used canned sweet potatoes, with the juice drained off, about half of a 28 oz. can. I also used about a teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and added a half cup of brown sugar. It wasn't sweet enough for my tastes, so I might add in the couple of tablespoons that the recipe calls for. I also will add pecans next time. I didn't this time because I didn't have any. I also made this batter the night before and didn't overmix. The pancake batter was incredibly fluffy. This batter is also moist, which required a little more cooking time than your usual pancake batter. The kids loved them, and I liked the change from the usual weekend pancake recipe.

Yammy pancakes, Is what were calling them. Added 1.4 cup brown sugar to sweeten them up a bit, and used pumpkin spice blend in place of all the spices. Added 1 more cup of milk for consistancy, and found that we had to cook them extra slow and long on LOW LOW heat, keeping them from burning. We also had 1/2 and 1/2 of sweet potatoes, and new red potatoes. It was a sweet blend. My 3 year old has eaten the whole plate of left overs today!

This recipe provided a very easy, tasty, and healthy alternative to the boring sweet potatoes with sour cream we usually have. I suggest cooking the potatoes in the microwave since after 20 minutes of boiling (more than the recipe requested) the middle was still very hard - I had to cook them in the microwave for an extra 15 minutes before they could be mashed. I replaced the butter with margarine, which worked just as well and is much healthier. Next time I'll try it with less margarine, and I'll double the recipe since we're a very hungry family of four and those pancakes disappeared very fast! All in all, this was a great recipe. It took me more time than I expected but next time I make it, it will probably be much faster!

These were delicious, without tasting too healthy. I might experiment with upping the spices a little bit next time.

My whole family liked these sweet potato pancakes. I served them for dinner. I baked yams instead of boiling, it seemed to bring out their sweeter taste. I wonder if it called for too much flour in the recipe though. It seemed like I could definitely taste the flour. I will try to add less next time but will definitely make them again.

I made these pancakes this morning and I did not think they were special. I did add cinnamon, vanilla, brown sugar, and pecans. I could not even taste the sweet potatoes. I think I'd prefer to make regular pancakes next time.

I made the recipe as written. These pancakes were awesome. I wasn't sure what 3/4lb of sweet potatoes comes out to so I used one cup mashed sweet potatoes and that was perfect. This recipes is a keeper for my family!

I loved this recipe. I did however make my own modifications. I read the other reviews and reduced the nutmeg to 1/4 tsp, added a 1/4 tsp cinnamon and 1 tsp vanilla. I also put in a dash of ground cloves. Also, I used Egg Nog instead of the Milk. Well, technically, I used Soy Nog, but I know thats not everyones cup of milk. Also, I had to add more Nog when I mixed the wet batter into the dry batter because it was more like a dough than a batter. Other than that it was unbelievable.

It was a big hit for my children but my husband is used to real potato pancakes and he didn't like the sweet potato taste. I probably would make it again if I had lots of sweet potatoes left over like I did for thanksgiving.

Wow, these were amazing. I prepared the batter the day before Thanksgiving, then on Thanksgiving morning I made them for my family that was visiting. Everyone loved them so much! I know some reviewers already mentioned this but just remember not to try to make them too big and to spread the batter out some, otherwise the insides will be gooey!

Very bland and lumpy. I do want to try these one more time, but I think I will use the brown sugar in another's comments for more sweetness and will cook my potato ALOT longer to get the smoother consistency.UPDATE: my 3 yr old son ate quite a bit, but I added vanilla and sugar as the other reviews suggested. I think next time I will try more sweet potatoes and cook them longer so they are not so lumpy.

These are very good. All of my children ate these. Even the picky, picky ones. On several of these I put down some chopped pecans, then some brown sugar, and then the batter. That made it so yummy. I did put some sugar in my batter. Next time I will put some cinnamon in my pancakes. It is good with just the nutmeg though. My husband kept saying how moist these were.

I loved these pancakes, but unfortuanatly, my 2 yr old didn't. The only complaint I have is that they didn't seem to cook in the middle, no matter how long I kept them on the griddle, but that could be due to a mistake by me. Thanks for this healthy creative twist on pancakes!
