Sweet Potato Pancakes
(Makes 3 to 4 servings)

1 pound (454 g)
grated sweet potatoes
1
small apple, peeled and chopped
1
small onion, chopped
1/2 cup
(125 mL) all purpose
flour
2 eggs
1 teaspoon (5 mL) salt
1/2 teaspoon (2.5 mL)
black pepper
1/4 cup (60 mL) canola oil

Combine the grated sweet potatoes,
chopped apple and chopped onion in a bowl. Toss to mix
them thoroughly. Add the flour and toss again.
Combine the eggs, salt and pepper
in a separate bowl. Beat the egg mixture.
Add the egg mixture to the sweet
potato mixture. Stir to combine the wet and dry
ingredients.
Place a griddle on the barbecue
grate. Preheat the barbecue on medium-high for 10
minutes. Oil the griddle.
Place a spoonful of pancake mixture
on the griddle. Gently flatten the surface of the
pancake so the thickness is even. If one side of the
pancake is browned in 3 minutes the griddle is at the
right temperature. If the griddle is too hot or too
cool, adjust the heat accordingly.
Oil the griddle again. Place the
remaining pancakes on the griddle. Spoon amounts that
will make 2 to 3-inch (5 to 7.5 cm) pancakes. Gently
flatten each pancake for uniformity. Grill for 3
minutes on each side.
Dab extra oil around the pancakes,
if necessary, in order to brown them.
