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!

These weren't as hard as some of the reviews made them sound. Making them with two tablespoons full of dough was the way to go. Any bigger and they were doughy in the middle at the end. My only complaint was that they weren't sweet potato tasting enough for me. Maybe I just needed sweeter potatoes? I will definitely make these again though.

Words can't explain how great these are! Since I like my sweet potatoes with brown sugar and cinnamon, I cut back on the nutmeg and added the brown sugar to the potato mixture and cinnamon to the flour. My three year old asks for them almost daily! I always keep some in the freezer.

Delicious! I added 2 Tbsp of sugar to the dry ingredients and it was just right to eat the pancakes alone, no syrup necessary! Great for freezing as well, for a quick breakfast just microwave them!

This was ok. Even after spicing up the recipe quite a bit it was still just ok. I didn't mash the sweet potatoes up enough (my error not the recipe). Hubby loved them especially the ones I added pecans to. I'm a tough rater so for me to give it a four is pretty decent. A five is only for recipes that I deem incredible! They were tasty enough. I'll probably try them again when I have cinnamon.

I would give this 3 1/2 stars if I could. I felt it was a bit too much nutmeg-maybe just 1/4 tsp. next time and add cinnamon. I also felt the baking powder taste was too strong (maybe cut back 1 tsp next time). I used white whole wheat flour and just microwaved the potatoes. Also added some vanilla. Great for trying to get a toddler to eat vegetables. Especially since there is no sugar in them. I will definitely try again with some more modifications!

These were good. As per other reviews I peeled, chopped, then boiled the sweet potato. I weighed it, ended up using 1 medium sweet potato, and my batter was a great consistency. I also spiced it up: pinch ginger, 1/2 ts nutmeg, 1 ts cinnamon. I subbed 2tb canola oil for the butter, and it worked wonderfully. My 5 year old said he could tell he was eating his veggies (after I told him what the orange was), but the addition of a few frozen blueberries made them perfect for him.

Pancakes were ok but I will not make again. I had to microwave the potatoe after boiling it as it was not soft enough. Must use mixer, otherwise lumpy if handmixed.

Very tasty. I used whole wheat flour instead of all purpose. Also used 1/4 t. of nutmeg and 1/4 t. of cinnamon and added a little vanilla. Added a little more milk part way though as well because batter was getting too thick. Very similar to pumpkin pancakes we like.

I love these and so does my 2 ear old grandson. We make them at least once a week. I sometime use whole wheat flour. I also add a little cinn. for a little more flavor.
