Very yummy! I rolled dough into balls and then in some cinnamon and brown sugar. Pressed them flat and baked them up. Love that they are not too sweet for breakfast. Be sure to use parchment on cookie sheet or they will stick(oops!) Propably could grease it instead of parch. Thanks for this healthy oatmeal cookie recipe. I actually used canned sweet potatoes and doubled the recipe. Perfect!

Yes, you can use date paste as a substitute for maple syrup in the sweet potato cookies recipe. Date paste is a natural sweetener that can provide a similar level of sweetness and moisture to the cookies, making it a suitable replacement.

For making the cookies crunchy instead of chewy, there are a couple of adjustments you can try:

Baking Time and Temperature: Increase the baking time slightly and bake at a slightly lower temperature. This can help the cookies dry out more, resulting in a crunchier texture.
Ingredients: Reduce the moisture content by using less liquid or by adding ingredients that promote a crunchy texture, such as more flour or ground nuts.

Can a flax egg be substituted for the egg?

Could date paste be used in place of maple syrup?
Any way to have a crunchy cookie instead of chewy?

I just made these with a little twitch. I put 1 tsp ube flavoring instead of vanilla (same amount), added walnuts and used roasted korean sweet potato. And oh my heaven, my husband and I can’t stop eating it. Best amount of sweetness and nuttiness. I can’t get enough of it. Will be making more of it later! Thanks for the recipe! ♥️♥️♥️

It’s so difficult to find a tasty gluten-free and dairy-free dessert but these cookies nail it! So tasty and perfectly flavored.

We made a large batch of these yesterday to take to work as a snack, and wow, we simply cannot get enough! Really good recipe, so easy to make, and they are just the most decadent treat ever! So glad we froze some for later!
