Sweet Potato Pancakes With Peach Butter and Spiced Pecans

Nothing says fall breakfast like sweet potato pancakes!  What a great way to get your veggie on in the mourning.  This recipe is modified from Tupelo Honey Cafe (I used wheat and flax instead of all purpose flour and less sugar).  I also changed the mashing of the sweet potatoes to using a food processor as my came out chunky.  I used our home made maple syrup instead of the peach butter even though it sounds soooo good.  It seemed silly since we have a nice stock pile of maple syrup.  I also did not make the spiced pecans as that would have meant a trip to the store only for pecans and I was feeling lazy.  I used walnut pieces instead since it's what I had on hand.
