improvised today!
1 large sweet potato
1 stick salted butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 egg
1 1/4 cups ww flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons candied ginger, chopped
1/3 cup dried pitted dates, chopped
1 teaspoon lemon zest
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 tsp ground cardamom
Nuke the sweet potato for 4 minutes on high. Cool and mash with butter, sugar, syrup and egg. Mix in remaining ingredients. Flatten golf-ball size mounds on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes. These don't spread and they rise very little.
Notes: To make it more like a traditional cookie, use a small sweet potato and add another 1/2 stick of butter and a little more flour and increase the baking soda to 1/2 teaspoon.
Other stuff that would be nice in this cookie: pecans, walnuts, flaxseed, dried apple, chopped tart apples, other sweet warm spices (e.g cinnamon, cloves)
