We definitely cannot resist sweets and an example of this is this new recipe from the nutritionist María Alcázar who presented to the Diario de Avisos: sweet potato, gofio and palm honey biscuits. Do you dare to try them?

Ingredients

  • 130 grams of baked white sweet potato.

  • 50 grams of corn gofio

  • 30 grams of palm honey or Canary Island palm sap

  • 50 grams of melted butter

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • A pinch of sea salt

  • 3 squares of dark chocolate 85%

  • A handful of chopped almonds

Directions

  • Pour the roast dressing gown into a bowl.
  • Crush the roasted sweet potato using a fork.
  • Add the melted butter, palm honey, sea salt and ground cinnamon in a bowl.
  • Mix well using a spatula or a palette knife until a homogenous mass is obtained.
  • Add the gofio to the bowl along with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Mix again with the spatula or palette knife. The dough should be moist, soft and easy to handle with your hands. Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
  • Shape the biscuits: Make small balls of dough with your hands. You can use a spoon to make all the biscuits come out approximately the same size. With these quantities indicated in the recipe, 9 small biscuits will come out.
  • Slightly crush each biscuit on the baking tray, which should be lined with greaseproof paper.
  • Press the tops of the biscuits with a fork, leaving the marks as shown in the video and photos.
  • Bake the biscuits at 180°C for 25 minutes or until the biscuits are golden and crispy. Remove the tray from the oven. Leave the biscuits to cool on a wire rack.
  • Dip the biscuits in chocolate: Melt three squares of 85% dark chocolate in the microwave or in a bain-marie.
  • Cover one end of each biscuit with the melted chocolate.
  • Sprinkle chopped almonds on the chocolate-coated part of the biscuit.
  • Leave the biscuits to cool so that the chocolate solidifies.
