How to Make Sweet Potato Rye Pancakes With Blueberry Honey Sauce

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups rye flour, ½ cup all-purpose flour, ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cream of tartar, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon ground cardamom, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  2. In a separate bowl, lightly beat 1 large egg.
  3. Add 1 cup mashed cooked sweet potato and ¼ cup sorghum syrup to the beaten egg.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients (egg mixture) into the dry ingredients (flour mixture).
  5. Add ½ cup reconstituted buttermilk (or ½ cup buttermilk + 1 ½ tsp lemon juice + 1/2 cup milk), stirring until just combined. Add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
  6. Lightly spray a griddle or large skillet with non-stick cooking spray and preheat over medium heat.
  7. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and ¼ cup honey.
  8. Bring the blueberry mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until blueberries have softened and sauce has thickened slightly.
  9. Remove blueberry sauce from heat and set aside.
  10. Pour ¼ cup of batter onto the preheated griddle for each pancake.
  11. Cook for 45 seconds to 1 minute per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip when bubbles begin to appear on the surface.
  12. Serve pancakes immediately, topped with the warm blueberry honey sauce.
