These chewy and soft cookies are basically made from a sweet potato that’s been baked, puréed, and mashed with rolled oats and sorghum flour. This flour blend works well to give you gluten free cookies with a slight crumbly texture. Sweet potatoes are very versatile and provide the natural starch for holding the ingredients together and add all natural sweetness to cookies. They are very easy to make and are best enjoyed for snacking!
