4 servings
- 1 medium sweet potato (about 8 oz), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 tbsp coconut oil, divided
- 3 large eggs
- ¾ cup milk
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
- ½ tsp ground cardamom
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
Ingredient noteThough high-fat foods can worsen reflux, this recipe has only a small amount of butter (~3/4 teaspoon per serving), making it likely fine for many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid butter, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
For serving
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup, for drizzling (optional)
- 1 tsp powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the sweet potato cubes in a small microwave-safe bowl with 2 tbsp water, cover loosely, and microwave on high for 4–5 minutes until completely tender when pierced with a fork. Drain any remaining water, then mash the sweet potato with a fork or potato masher until smooth. You should have about ½ cup mashed sweet potato.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, maple syrup, Ceylon cinnamon, cardamom, and salt until smooth. Add the flour and whisk until the batter is lump-free and pourable. Fold in the mashed sweet potato until evenly combined.
