Yamcakes

Toddler paradise: yams and pancakes! At the same time!

Stir together the dry ingredients:

1 c. flour

1 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. sugar

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg

Beat together the wet ingredients:

1 c. buttermilk

2 eggs

3 Tbsp. coconut oil

1 tsp. vanilla

1 small yam, mashed (about 1 - 1.5 cups) -- if you don't have enough yam, try a mixture of yam and banana

Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir just until mixed. If the mixture seems too thick, add a small amount of buttermilk to thin it out (it should be thick but pourable).

Cook over medium heat.
