Back from a recent trip with DD, we had breakfast at Port Orleans. It was wonderful and I would love to get the recipe for the sweet potato pancakes. Any ideas where to look?

Right here:


Sweet Potato Pancakes With Pecan Honey Butter


Yield: 12-15 pancakes.


Pancakes:

1 1/4 cups brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 1/2 cups milk
3 each eggs
6 Tblsp vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
12-oz. can sweet potato (canned or frozen), mashed


Pecan honey butter:

1 stick butter (at room temperature)
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup toasted pecans



Instructions:
1. To make pecan honey butter, combine butter, honey and toasted pecans. Set aside.

2. To make the pancakes, combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Stir in milk and beaten eggs. Add oil and vanilla. Beat until smooth. Fold in the mashed sweet potatoes (should result in a lumpy texture).

3. In a small nonstick frying pan, heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil over medium heat. Pour in batter to desired size. Cook until dark brown (sweet potato pancakes take a little longer to cook than regular pancakes because of the density of the sweet potatoes).

4. Serve pancakes warm with pecan honey butter.
