Ingredients

Instructions
For the Cookies
- Note: I use metric measurements for any baking recipe I develop. I reccomend you buy a scale and do the same.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Mix the oat flour, tapioca flour, protein powder (and splenda if you're using it) together until it is fully incorporated.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and mix until it forms a dough.
- Spray a sheet pan with oil and use a cookie scoop to form each cookie. It will make 12.
- Wet your fingers and press each cookie into shape, they will not spread in the oven.
- Bake for 6-7 minutes. Let the cookies cool before serving.

One of my favorite recipes here, you should make a vid on these!
Some notes after making these a few times:
– It’s quickest and easiest IMO to process your sweet potatoes by dicing them up and microwaving them. After that they puree or mash pretty easily. If you puree up the skins as well the cookies will come out darker, but include all the nutritional benefits those skins have. You can also put the raw diced sweet potato into a food processor to make a samosa/coconut flake style texture that’s a bit harder to work with but is still great.
– Prepping for 36 cookies (3x) will let you fill a large sheet pan with them rather than having to form individual cookies. A bit hard to spread, but once you do so you can bake them for a bit longer then cut them into even squares.
thank you and good notes 😎
Should the sweet potatoes be baked first, or are they used raw? I have never used a sweet potato in a recipe like this, but it seems like it would be hard to mash them up in their raw form. Thank you!
