Sweet Potato Tots Ingredients

Method

Sweet Potato Tots Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and cut the sweet potatoes into chunks. Boil them in a pot of water for about 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain and let cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Mash the Sweet Potatoes

    In a large bowl, mash the boiled sweet potatoes with a fork or potato masher until smooth.

  3. 3

    Mix the Ingredients

    Add the flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, olive oil, paprika, and fresh parsley to the mashed sweet potatoes. Mix well until all ingredients are combined and a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Shape the Tots

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using your hands, shape the mixture into small tots and place them on the baking sheet.

  5. 5

    Bake the Tots

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through.

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your sweet potato tots with your favorite dipping sauce!
