Sweet Potato Turkey Poppers
Yields Approximately 25 Poppers
Cooking Time: 30 mins
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground turkey (you can use ground chicken too)
- 2 cups raw (not cooked) sweet potato, finely grated or put in a food processor
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil + 1 tsp for greasing the baking sheet
- 2 Tbsp coconut flour
- 2-3 sprigs green onion, chopped fine
- 1 Tbsp garlic powder
- 1 Tbsp onion powder
- 1 tsp sea salt
- Optional: 1 tsp paprika or chili powder for a little spicy kick!
Equipment:
- Food Processor
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly grease a lined baking sheet with coconut oil.
- Take the raw sweet potato and squeeze it with a paper towel or cheesecloth to remove any excess liquid.
- Add all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and mix well.
- Begin rolling the mixture into small, slightly flattened poppers about one inch in diameter (you'll have about 20-25 poppers) and place them on the cooking sheet.
- Place in the oven for 25-28 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Crisp further in a pan or place under the broiler if desired for 1-2 minutes to crisp further.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool. Serve with your favorite sauce like Paleo ketchup, mustard or honey mustard etc.
For the dipping sauce, I choose a honey dijon mustard that is equal parts honey and dijon mustard. It's super simple but absolutely delicious. Get creative with your dips the possibilities are endless!
