1 medium Sweet Potato peeled and grated
1/4 onion peeled/grated
1/2 apple peeled/grated
1 carrot (or three large baby carrots) peeled/grated
2 egg whites, lightly beaten
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp salt (I used less)
1/2 tsp pepper
1/3 cup olive oil (for frying)
Combine sweet potato, onion, apple, and carrot. Wrap with paper towel or cheesecloth and wring out as much liquid as possible. Then, in large bowl, mix grated ingredients with egg whites, flour, salt, and pepper.
Heat oil in non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pat the mixture into about 3" round patties and lay in the oil. Press gently to flatten and cook on each side until browning, then remove to paper towel to drain.
Serve warm. Make 10-12 cakes. Carb count: 60 carbs for entire mixture - about 6 carbs per cake. Calories: 687 total - about 57 per cake.
Since only Kaya and I ate them, I put the rest in the fridge and can pop them in the oven to go with lunch or dinner!
