Whisk together the sweet potato flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Let the batter rest for 5 minutes to allow the sweet potato flour to absorb the liquid.

Pour about ¼ cup of batter onto the pan for each pancake.
Cook until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges begin to set, about 2–3 minutes.
Flip and cook for another 1–2 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Repeat with the remaining batter.
