Recipe- Healthy To Eat Baked Sweet Potato Latkes

Baked sweet potato latkes have beautiful crispy edges and are soft inside. They are irresistible served hot with a big dollop of sour cream and some green onions. This baked version is much healthier than traditional deep-fried latkes yet it's every bit as delicious.

Ingredients

4 tablespoons cooking oil, divided
1 ½ lb sweet potatoes, about 2 medium
½ cup flour, gluten-free, if needed
6 green onions, whites and green parts chopped separately
2 large eggs
1 large clove garlic, finely minced
1 teaspoon EACH: paprika, sea salt, and pepper
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
Sour cream, to serve

Method

* Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Drizzle each baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of oil.

* Peel and grate the sweet potatoes using the large holes on your grater.

* Place the grated sweet potatoes into a large bowl and add the flour, the white parts of the green onions, the eggs, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper and mix together well.

* Use a large cookie scoop or ¼ cup measuring cup and make 18 latkes, dividing them between the 2 baking sheets. Press them down so that they are about ¼ inch thick. Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil over the tops of the latkes.

* Bake for 40 minutes, or until the tops start to brown and crisp. Sprinkle a little cheese on top of each latke then put them back in the oven for 5 minutes.

* Serve the latkes hot out of the oven with some sour cream and the green onions on top.
