Buñuelos Sweet Potato Casserole
Lights! Camera! Action! Our Buñuelos Sweet Potato Casserole just arrived on set and is ready for its closeup. Why? Well, the proof is in the pudding—er—sweet potatoes. First, we roasted sweet potatoes and sweetened them with coconut sugar and maple syrup, like traditional candied yams. But, the award-winning scene (where this recipe gets its star power) is the final act featuring our Grain Free Mini Buñuelos Cinnamon Crisps. Our mini buñuelos get crushed down into a crunchy topping alongside pepitas, almonds, and chia seeds. Bake at 375 F
