Ingredients for Savory Sweet Potato & Chia Seed Breakfast Patties

Instructions

  1. 1 Start by soaking the chia seeds. In a small bowl, combine chia seeds with water and let them sit for about 5 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency.
  2. 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, chia seed gel, chickpea flour, scallions, turmeric, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a cohesive batter.
  3. 3 Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, scoop about 1/4 cup of the sweet potato mixture and shape it into a patty with your hands.
  4. 4 Place the patty onto the skillet and flatten slightly. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Add more oil as needed when cooking additional patties.
  5. 5 Repeat with the remaining mixture to make all the patties. Serve warm, garnished with fresh cilantro.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair these savory patties with a side of fresh avocado slices and a dollop of Greek yogurt for a balanced breakfast. For a refreshing beverage, a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice complements the flavors beautifully. Alternatively, serve with a mixed green salad dressed with lemon vinaigrette for a light and wholesome meal.

Storage Tips

Store leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until warmed through. You can also freeze the patties for up to one month; reheat directly from frozen in the oven, adding a few extra minutes to the heating time.
