Sweet Potato Falafel
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 cup peeled and mashed cooked sweet potato (1 med/large sweet potato)

- 1/2 cup fresh parsley leaves
- 1/2 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs, divided
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- In a food processor, pulse the onion and garlic until finely chopped. Add sweet potato, beans, parsley, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, and spices. Pulse until a well-combined dough forms.
- Pour remaining breadcrumbs into a bowl. Scoop about 1/4 cup of dough and roll into a ball. Roll each ball in the breadcrumbs. Repeat to make about 12 balls.
