In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of sugar.

Add the sweet potato puree, 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups of milk, and 1 1/4 cup of butter to the dry ingredients.

Mix all the ingredients together until well incorporated.

Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Spoon out portions of the batter onto the skillet and cook the pancakes for about 2 minutes on each side, ensuring the first side is golden brown before flipping.

Serve with warm icing and crushed pecans.
