Ingredients

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato (cooked and cooled)
  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter (natural and unsweetened)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 egg
  • Water (as needed for consistency)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potato, oat flour, peanut butter, cinnamon, and egg. Mix until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little water, one tablespoon at a time, until it holds together.
  3. Roll and Cut: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use cookie cutters to cut out shapes, or simply cut into squares with a knife.
  4. Bake: Place the treats on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  5. Cool and Store: Allow the treats to cool completely on a wire rack before storing them in an airtight container. They can last up to a week at room temperature or longer if refrigerated.
