A great way to start off this Valentine Day is with a delightful breakfast treat. My love of sweet potato pancakes started with a visit to a diner off the beaten path. After that day, I made it my responsibility to try sweet potato pancakes in every restaurant that served them. Unfortunately I came up empty and decided to make my own. After the third batch, I came up with a close contender. After I mixed the ingredients, I realized I wanted to dye the pancakes pink but had no dye so I used the next best thing......beets. Trust me, you can't taste the beet juice at all, and you can build the color intensity to your liking.
