Breakfast sweet potato and banana patties.


Serves 2.

Ingredients
1 sweet potato
1 banana
1 green onion stalk - chopped
1/2 tbs agave nectar
zest of a lemon
cinnamon
nutmeg
a tiny pinch of sea salt
non-stick spray (without hydrogenated oils)

Directions
Peel the sweet potato and cube it.
Place the cubes into water and bring to a boil.
When the potatoes are soft, drain the water.

Alternatively you can bake the sweet potato in the oven at 375 until soft, then mash it.

Add the banana, onions, lemon zest and spices and mash them.
Form the patties from the mash. (Since I didn't use flower, the patties will be soft, so handle carefully.)
Put a couple pumps of non-stick pray into a pan. When heated, grill the patties until brown.

I like mine a tad burned, so I push the patty against the bottom of the pan. You are welcome to just lightly brown it.

Serve with fruit, light whipped cream or  light syrup.
