Cooking Instructions
-
Prepare the Açai Yogurt:
- In a medium bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, açai puree, honey, and lime zest. Stir until well mixed. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
-
Make the Pancake Batter:
- In a large bowl, combine grated sweet potatoes, tapioca flour, all-purpose flour, grated cheese, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and melted butter. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
-
Cook the Pancakes:
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the batter into the skillet for each pancake, flattening slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as necessary to avoid burning.
-
Serve:
- Serve the warm pancakes with a generous dollop of açai yogurt on top. Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves, if desired.
