INGREDIENTS
  

  • 1 pound sweet potatoes, unpeeled
  • 3.5 ounce feta, crumbled
  • 3 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 3 large eggs, room temp
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Peel the sweet potatoes and grate so you get large shreds.
  • Once grated, place the sweet potato in a towel and squeeze out excess moisture, but not completely as we don't want the fritters to be dry.
  • In a large bowl, combine grated sweet potato, crumbled feta cheese, spices, and beaten eggs. Mix until well combined.
  • Take about ¼ cup of the sweet potato mixture and shape it into patties or balls. Place the patties or balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spray lightly with olive oil.
  • Gently press down on each ball using the back of a measuring cup to form a patty shape. Make sure not to make the patties too thick.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the tops of the patties are golden brown and crispy.
  • Once done, remove the sweet potato patties from the oven and let them cool slightly.
  • Serve the patties with your choice of dipping sauces such as avocado crema, sour cream, ranch dressing, or any other preferred sauce.

NOTES

  • To Store. Store the fritters in the fridge for 4-5 days in an airtight container. 
  • To Freeze. Freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To Reheat. Thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the oven or toaster oven. You can microwave them though they may not crisp up.
