Baked Sweet Potato Coconut Fritters

1/18/2020

 
Sweet potatoes and yams are starchy and delightful -- full of fiber and vitamin A too. These little delights are for the sweet at heart and 100% vegetarian, but everybody will want one. Makes 24.
The Recipe
Ingredients:
  • 2  yams
  • 1 egg yolk, if you are vegan, use a banana
  • 1 tbsp cornmeal
  •  1 tsp fresh ginger(minced)
  • ½ tbsp minced garlic
  •  ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut

Directions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 F.
  2. Wash the yams and cut them into uniform chunks. On a cookie sheet, bake the yams until they can be pierced with a fork.
  3. Reduce the heat to 350 F.
  4. Mash the sweet potatoes with a fork. In a food processor or blender, pulse the potatoes with the remaining ingredients, but not the coconut. Make it a course.
  5. Drop 24 dollops of batter on a lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with coconut.
  6. Bake the fritters for 15 minutes.
