I made these yummy pancakes for breakfast. Got to get your veggies in even at breakfast time if you need to use your produce from a CSA share.

Sweet Potato Pancakes
(adapted from About.com:Southern Food)

1 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 1/4 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup butter, melted
handful of coarsely chopped pecans (optional)

Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Combine remaining ingredients; add to flour mixture, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Add pecans if using. If the batter seems too thick add more milk as needed although it is quite a thick batter. Drop by 1/4 cup measure onto hot greased griddle or skillet and fry, turning once, until browned on both sides. Serve with pure maple syrup for a great breakfast.
