Instructions
Prepare the Sweet Potato Mixture
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Mash the cooked sweet potato in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
-
Add the coconut sugar, almond flour, and orange zest, and mix until a dough forms.
Shape the Panellets
-
Take about a tablespoon of the dough and roll it into a small ball. Repeat with the remaining dough
-
Roll each ball in the beaten egg to coat, then press pine nuts around each one, gently pressing them in so they stick.
Bake
-
Place the pine nut-coated panellets on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the panellets are lightly golden and the pine nuts are toasted.
Cool and Serve
-
Allow the panellets to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
