In a medium bowl, mash together the sweet potato and banana with a fork, potato masher, or hand mixer. It doesn’t need to be perfectly smooth at this stage, but work to break up the big chunks.

Add the oats, flour, maca powder, and chia; stir to combine.

Add the milk, vanilla, and spices; stir well. At this stage the batter should be thick but loose enough to pour easily onto your skillet, so add more liquid or oats as needed. The banana and potato should also be smooth and fully mashed.

Lastly, add the baking powder and cranberries.

Lightly coat a skillet with non-stick cooking spray or a drizzle of coconut oil. With a quarter-cup measuring cup, scoop out batter and place evenly onto the skillet. Cook over low heat, to prevent premature burning, until the tops begin to bubble slightly and the bottoms are firm. Flip, and cook until golden brown and crispy. The insides might be slightly soft still, but think cookies that are moist in the center and crisp on the outside ?

Repeat with remaining batter, and serve warm with toppings of your choice. I opted for tahini and honey, but traditional maple syrup, peanut or almond butter, jellies, or chocolate spread would all work…the options are endless!
