Ingredients

• 3 cups shredded sweet potatoes (~1 large)
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 egg, large
• ⅓ cup flour (any kind...we used white whole wheat)
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 cup thinly sliced purple onion
• ¼ cup chopped chives
• salt and pepper to taste
• olive oil, for drizzling

Directions

• First, preheat oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Peel a large sweet potato and then use a cheese grater to grate sweet potato in order to form a hash. If you have multiple grate sizes on your grater, youll want to use the largest one.
• Place 3 cups of grated sweet potatoes plus all other ingredients into a large bowl and mix. Dont be afraid to get messy and use your hands.
• Once everything is mixed. Use a ¼ cup scoop to scoop mixture into palms. Press together, squeezing out as much air as possible to create a patty. Place patties on lined baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Bake at 400ºF for around 30 minutes or until the tops of the fritters have firmed up and begin to turn golden brown.
