About the Recipe

Simple ingredients, easy directions, and links for what I used. Enjoy! 

Ingredients

Crust:

  • 1+1/3 cups all purpose flour

  • 1/3 cup flax meal

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 4 tbsps butter or coconut oil, melted

  • 2 tbsps honey or maple syrup

  • 1 egg or flax egg


Filling:

  • 1 medium sweet potato, baked or steamed

  • 2-3 small carrots, steamed

  • 2 tbsps honey or maple syrup

  • cinnamon (optional)


Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  2. Add dry ingredients (flour, flax meal, baking power) into a bowl and mix.

  3. In another bowl, whisk together honey, egg, melted butter or coconut oil.

  4. Slowly add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and knead until it forms into a dough that is not sticky.

  5. For filling, add sweet potato, carrots, and honey or maple syrup. Smash and mix.

  6. Flour surface and roll dough into a rectangle. Add filling and fold over. Cut dough lengthwise using a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Carefully pinch ends to seal. A little water also helps seal the dough to itself.

  7. Bake for 15 minutes and cool. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. I warm on low in my toaster oven or let them sit out in the counter for a bit.


    Notes: I baked the sweet potato on 400 degrees F for 45-50 minutes until soft. I prefer to bake mine-it's sweeter to me that way! But you can also cut into cubes and. steam with the carrots! For the carrots, I steamed for 10 minutes.
