I was given sweet potatoes and sugar and made these. They were so tasty!

You don't need to put the mixture through a sieve. You'll have a fluffy texture instead. Use coffee creamer or milk, but I like heavy cream the best. Cream gives the richest taste... If you like a lighter taste, use milk. I was told a friend that she tried with soy milk and they came out very good. Recipe by To-mi mama

Steps

1

Rinse the sweet potato and peel the skin. Soak in salted water for 3 minutes.
2

Boil the sweet potato until tender (at Step 7, I will show you a trick).
3

Add 20 g sugar to the bowl.
4

Mash the cooked sweet potato in the bowl and add cream. Stir the mixture well. Shape the mixture, brush with egg yolk and bake in a 430°F/220°C oven for 20 minutes.They are ready to serve.
5

Note: You don't have to put the mixture through a sieve but if you do, you will have a smoother texture.
6

If you couldn't get a shiny finish, brush the surface with jam after it's baked. I like apricot jam best but black currant & orange jam worked well too.
7

Water content of the sweet potato differs. When you shape the sweet potato mixture and they have cracks, add more cream.
8

Sugar content of sweet potato also varies. This recipe has a mild sweetness, so adjust the amount of sugar to your liking.
