I re-invented my Mothers great Potato Patties, that she made with left over mashed potatoes, into to these semi-healthy sweet delights.
Ingredients:
4 medium sweet potatoes
1 tsp cinnamon/nutmeg/allspice, or to taste
1/4 brown sugar or to taste, honey or fake sugar also , you decide
1 egg, i have wild range chicken eggs, delivered to my door
quick oats, for binding, yeah i know....
olive oil spray for cooking pan
Directions:
1. Microwave sweet potatoes until done, mash, they should just fall right out of their skins. Sometimes I will take scissors and cut the skins up very fine and add them, this is really up to you. I like the fiber and nutrients that are added.
2. Mix in all of the other ingredients to form a semi firm product. Actually it is just like mashed potatoes just a hair softer.
3. Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a hot cast iron skillet, sprayed with olive oil spray.
4. Over medium/low heat cook until both sides are brown and crisp.
5. Cool a little and Serve!
6. I love them just this way, but Vanilla Greek Yogurt would make a great topping!
7. Enjoy!
