Super easy recipe, it calls for curry powder, but feel free to use the spice of your choice. I used Cajun seasoning when I prepared this dish. Also if you don’t want to go through the process of preparing a raw potato, use canned sweet potatoes.

Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 25 minutes Servings: 3

INGREDIENTS

Avocado oil spray

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon curry powder (or seasoning of your choice)

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 cup flour

1 large sweet potato (1 lb.)

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spray with oil.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg, sea salt, black pepper, curry powder, and dried thyme. Mix in the flour and set aside.
3. Pierce the sweet potato all over with a fork. Microwave until tender, about 5 minutes per side.
4. Allow to cool 5 minutes, until easy to handle, then peel and mash well with a fork.
5. Add the mashed potato to the egg mixture. Mix well.
6. Use a 4 tablespoon scoop, or measuring cup, scoop six mounds of the mixture onto the baking sheet. Flatten with a spatula. Spray with oil.
7. Bake the sweet potato cakes for 15 minutes. Flip to the other side, spray with more oil and bake until browned and set, about 10 minutes.

I will definitely be making these again soon!
