Moist and Delicious Sweet Potato Bites
- 450 grams Japanese sweet potato
- 40 grams Butter or margarine
- 6 tbsp Sugar
- 3 tbsp Light cream
- 2 Egg yolk
- 1 Egg yolk
- 1 tsp Water
- Peel the potato, with a thicker peel than usual, and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Soak in water to get rid of its harshness.
- Preheat the oven to 190C.
- Put the potato and 120 ml of water into a heatproof bowl and cover in plastic wrap.
- Microwave for about 13 minutes (600 W).
- Drain when they have softened.
- Mix the butter into the potato while it's still hot, then put it into a food processor.
- Put all of the ingredients marked with into the food processor as well and blend.
- Blend until it's smooth like in the picture.
- Even if the mixture seems a bit runny, it'll harden a bit once it's cooled, so don't worry.
- Line the baking pan with parchment paper, then shape the potatoes and line them onto the parchment.
- Brush on some egg wash made from the ingredients.
- Bake for 15 minutes at 190C.
- Remove from the oven, brush on the egg wash again, and bake in the oven for 10 more minutes.
- If it's not browning well, raise the oven temperature.
- Once they are baked, put on aluminum foil cups.
- It'll look more tasty when it's a bit browned, so keep that in mind when you are baking.
- I used a butter/margarine blend.
- Sweet Potato Pie.
- Sweet Potato Tart.
- I tried to preserve the natural sweetness of the sweet potato, so I did not use that much sugar.
- You can increase the amount if you want.
