Baked Sweet Potato Latkes

I opened up a bag of organic sweet potatoes today, and found this recipe inside. It sounded SO good, that I decided it would be worth the extra effort to grate the sweet potatoes...very happy I did, because these were delicious!


ingredients:
2 lbs grated sweet potatoes
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup of flour
1/4 tsp aluminum free baking powder
1/2 tsp salt (i used pink himalayan sea salt)
a few twists of fresh ground pepper
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (i used this and really liked it, but this is optional)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional, i left this out)
greek yogurt & roasted kale to garnish 

**see my recipe for roasted kale chips here http://everyday-vegetarian.blogspot.com/2010/03/roasted-kale-chips.html **


directions:
  • preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit
  • coat 1 to 2 baking sheets with canola oil cooking spray (olive oil works too)
  • in a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well
  • drop quarter-cupfuls onto the baking sheet and flatten with spatula
  • bake for 25 minutes, flip, and bake for an additional 10 minutes
  • garnish with greek yogurt and roasted kale chips and serve
  • enjoy!!
