Adults: Warm skillet, melt butter and sauté chopped onion until translucent. Cut sweet potato into pieces while adding tothe pan. You may have to mash the pieces a little bit. Add corn, mix well and turn off heat.
Together: Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, combine dry ingredients. Add milk and eggs.
Kids: Stir in the sweet potato mixture and add scallions and green herbs.
Together: Warm just enough butter or olive oil in a frying pan to cook the pancakes. Spoon batter into pan and cook several minutes on each side.
