Hello everyone!
At home, I always love to have a variety of alternatives for snacks. I usually use fruits, but today will be different!
A couple of days ago I bought some vegetables and legumes. Among these, I found a sweet potato. It is a tuber that I usually make boiled or mashed, but today I ventured to prepare it differently. It occurred to me that I could make some sweet potato snacks.
To prepare these sweet potato snack, you need:
2 units of sweet potatoes
1 tablespoon of cinnamon powder
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 tablespoon of chia or sesame seeds
Preheat the oven to 180º C. Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Cut them into cubes. Try to cut them evenly so they all cook evenly.
In a bowl, place the cinnamon, sugar, and chia, or sesame seeds and mix them.
Place the cut sweet potato in a plastic bag and add the mixture of cinnamon and seeds. Close the bag and shake well, for the mixture permeates the sweet potatoes.
Place on a non-stick paper tray and pour the sweet potatoes. Bake it for 20 minutes.
There is no need to keep an eye on the oven. When the sweet potatoes are baked, the aroma they give off fills the whole kitchen. The heat of the oven, concentrates all the aromas and flavors of this vegetable.
It is a snack you can eat like popcorn. In the mid-afternoon it becomes a good option to watch a movie.
You can also use this snack for breakfast by adding it to a bowl of almond or coconut milk. If you also add some toasted pumpkin seeds, it becomes mind-blowing!
If you like my recipe, you can leave me your comment.
Thanks for reading. See you in next post!
