How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prick sweet potato several times with a fork.
  • Heat sweet potato in a microwave on high until tender, about 6 minutes. Cut potato in half and scoop flesh out of the skin into a bowl; discard skin. Mash potato with a fork or potato masher and transfer about 1 cup to a large bowl. Save any remaining sweet potato for another use.
  • Mix whole wheat flour, applesauce, and eggs in the large bowl with the sweet potato until a dough forms. Turn dough out on a well-floured surface and roll dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter or cut dough into strips with a pizza cutter. Arrange cookies on an un-greased baking sheet.
  • Bake until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • ***I will often turn the oven off and leave them there until the oven cools, this will make them crunchier.

    My Princess Abigail l-o-v-e-s sweet potatoes and yams. I dehydrated long precooked slices for her a few weeks ago and think she will like your recipe as well. Thank you for posting this! (She is in K9 "Boot Camp" for two weeks and will have a nice surprise when she comes home. I really miss her.) Sallie
