Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mashed sweet potatoes
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, blend the mashed sweet potatoes, brown sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt until combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, lightly flattening each mound with the back of a spoon.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the edges are beautifully golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
<li Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the sweet potato mixture, stirring until everything is well incorporated. If using chocolate chips, gently fold them in at this stage.
Notes
For a vegan version, replace the coconut oil with applesauce. Customize your mix-ins with nuts, dried fruits, or coconut flakes.
