1 egg
1 cup cooked sweet potatoes

Grated rind from 2 large oranges
3/4 cup raisins, soaked and well drained
1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 tsp. salt

In a large bowl, pour milk onto cereal and let stand.  Mash enough sweet potato with lemon juice to measure 1 cup.

Add potato to the milk and cereal, along with a beaten egg, honey, orange rind and raisins.  Mix well.

In a smaller bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and soda.
