Mini Sweet Potato Breads

My friend is a personal trainer and nutritional therapist and has some fabulous tasty gluten free recipes. Here is one i have used on many occasions and it's great. It can be stored in the fridge or frozen.  As an easy on the go snack. I also have these for breakfast with boiled or poached eggs. Really nice :-)

Ingredients

  • 2 x medium sweet potatoes ( about 2 cups of steamed/mashed sweet potato
  • 100g gluten-free oats or buckwheat flakes
  • Four scoops vanilla protein (alternatively you can use chocolate protein powder which will give a sweeter bread, more like cake texture)
  • 1 tsp baking powder – gluten free
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (not essence)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees for 15/20 minutes.
  2. Cook sweet potato (preferably steam) and then mash it.
  3. Put all the ingredients into a food processor, blend all of the ingredients until smooth
  4. Hand roll the mixture into 16 small balls and place on a large lined baking tray, or grease a bread tin and pour mixture into this to make a bread.

  5. Bake for about 20 minutes or until cooked.
