These Sweet Potato Blinis are a nourishing, anti-inflammatory twist on the traditional pancake, perfectly suited for those managing autoimmune conditions and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) like Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and refined sugar-free, they’re designed to support digestion and reduce systemic inflammation.

Sweet potatoes provide a foundation of slow-releasing carbohydrates that are gentle on the gut and rich in beta-carotene, vitamin C, and potassium. These nutrients are essential for immune function, reducing oxidative stress, and supporting mucosal healing in the digestive tract, particularly important for individuals with IBD or chronic inflammation.

Unlike typical blinis made with wheat flour and processed ingredients, these are crafted from whole, healing foods chosen to calm the immune system and nourish the body from within. Their soft, easy-to-digest texture makes them ideal during flare-ups or periods of digestive sensitivity.

These Sweet Potato Blinis are highly versatile, enjoy them with gut-healing toppings like smashed avocado, wild salmon, or probiotic-rich coconut yogurt and berries. Every ingredient works in harmony to stabilize blood sugar, promote microbiome balance, and reduce inflammatory triggers.

Whether eaten for breakfast, as a snack, or part of a meal, Sweet Potato Blinis offer delicious support for those on an anti-inflammatory, gut-healing path. They’re proof that food made for healing doesn’t need to sacrifice comfort or taste.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp sweet potato mash
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp arrowroot powder
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp olive oil

Directions

  1. In a bowl, place all the ingredients except the olive oil.

  2. Mix well until you get a smooth and homogenized mix.

  3. Heat a pan and add the olive oil. Scoop the mixture with a tablespoon, creating mini pancakes.

  4. Cook just like you would pancakes, about a couple of minutes on each side.

Serving Tips

Use the sweet potato mash recipe and make a batch so you can use it in different ways. Sweet potato cottage pie, sweet potato blinis, on its own, etc.

This is perfect on its own for breakfast, as blinis with smoked salmon and dill or with a salad for a source of good carbohydrates.

Storage Tips

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. You can also freeze the individual servings. Place them on a baking sheet, then when fully frozen, remove and place them in the container/bag for up to 3 months. To reheat, place in a preheated oven 180 C/ 350 F for 20 minutes.
