Directions
- Preheat oven to 400° F.
- Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork several times. Bake sweet potatoes on baking sheet lined with foil until soft, about 45-55 minutes. Let cool.
- Remove skin from sweet potatoes and combine flesh with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Let the mixture sit in fridge for 10-15 minutes.
- In a bowl separate and keep the egg whites only.
- In a separate bowl, combine almond meal, panko, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Roll about 1 tablespoon sweet potato mixture into a tot shape, douse in egg white mixture, and roll in breading mixture. Place on an oiled baking.
- Once all tots are on baking sheet, spray tots with cooking spray in order to achieve even browning.
- Bake at 400°F for 45 minutes or until they've reached desired crispiness, flipping tots halfway through.
- For the dressing, combine all ingredients in a food processor. Serve immediately.
