Gorgeous sweet potato pancakes. Tall and flavour-rich! They’re made with sweet potato, self-raising flour, and a special ingredient: oat milk, so they’re dairy-free too!
If you seek out dairy alternatives, or you just regularly enjoy great tasting, healthy drinks when you’re on the go, then you should definitely look out for Planted when you’re next in the supermarket.
It’s currently available in two delicious flavours; Coconut with Cocoa or Oat with Banana, dairy-free and fortified with calcium (for maintenance of normal teeth & bones), vitamin D (for absorption of calcium & phosphorous) and vitamin B₁₂ (for normal function of the immune system). The Coconut with Cocoa variety is also gluten-free!
You can find them in ASDA stores, priced at £2.20 for a 1L carton, and for every carton sold, 2p will go to the Woodland Trust, the UK’s largest woodland conservation charity.
So let’s make some delicious sweet potato pancakes. They’re quick and easy, dairy and egg free, use simple ingredients, and they’re pretty healthy too!
Ingredients
- 500g (1.1 lbs) or 1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 2-3cm (1 in) chunks
- 420ml (14.2 fl oz) Planted Oat and Banana Milk
- 225g (7.9 oz) self-raising flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 3 tsp egg replacement powder
- 2 tbsp oil, to fry
Instructions
Place the sweet potato in a pan of cold water, bring to the boil and cook for 10 minutes until tender, then drain, place in a bowl and mash until smooth (or use a hand blender).
Add the Planted oat drink and whisk well.
Add the flour, egg replacement powder, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda and whisk or blend through.
Add a drizzle of oil to a non-stick pan and warm over a medium heat. Add 2-3 dessertspoonfuls and allow to cook for 1 minute, until the underside if golden and bubbles form on the surface. Flip and fry for a further 30 seconds until golden on both sides.
Repeat until all of the pancakes are cooked, layering on a warm plate, or on a baking tray in a very low oven, then serve piled onto each plate. I recommend serving with a drizzle of your favourite syrup and plenty of fresh fruit.

Shaun @ 10Warriors says
As soon as I read this I thought “eurghhhhh” but I wanted to find out more.
What I did find was that they were really blooming tasty! A bit of golden syrup helped althouygh the banana helped too, so choose whether or not you want to add golden syrup.. just try it on one pancake first and see what you think?
Thanks for this recipe… Im still torn whether Id call it breakfast or as a tasty afternoon or evening snack! :D
