Ingredients

5 servings
  1. 100 gramsSweet potato
  2. 20 gramsHoney
  3. 15 gramsMargarine

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the sweet potatoes into 1 cm thick rounds, peel them, and soak the rounds in water for 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Wrap the sweet potato in cling film and heat it up in the microwave for 2 minutes (600 W). Turn the rounds over and heat them for a further 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Place the sweet potato in a plastic bag (2 layers thick if possible) and use a rolling pin to mash it up.

  4. 4

    Add the honey and margarine to the potato and rub the ingredients together through the plastic bag.

  5. 5

    When the mixture looks like it does in this photo, use your hands to roll it into 5 balls. (1 ball should weigh around 20 g).

  6. 6

    Arrange the sweet potato balls on a sheet of aluminium foil (or you could place each ball in an aluminium cup), and bake them in a preheated toaster oven for 2-3 minutes.

  7. 7

    Just before the sweet potato snacks are due to finish baking, you could brush some egg over the tops to glaze them and top them with sesame seeds In the photo I just glazed mine with egg yolk wash.
