Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked mashed sweet potatoes
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour plus more for rolling dough
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Add sweet potatoes, eggs, applesauce to a mixing bowl and mix well. Stir in flour. Mixture will be stiff and sometimes it's easier to mix with your hands than to bend a metal spoon.
- Divide dough in half and roll onto a surface covered with additional flour until about 1/8" thick. Use a cookie cutter to cut shapes and place onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until dry and crispy. Remove from oven. let stand on baking sheet for 2 minutes before removing to completely cool on a cooling rack.
- Serve when cooled or store in a sealed container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
