- In a food processor, blend sweet potato and eggs. Add broth/water and mix well. Transfer to a large bowl.
- Add flours, baking powder, sea salt and nutritional yeast and onion and kale mixture. Mix with a whisk until well blended.
- On medium high heat, brush a small or medium skillet with some ghee or coconut oil. Reduce heat to medium and pour 1/2 cup batter in the centre of the skillet.
