Recipe Card
Sweet Potato Cheddar Scones
Ingredients
- 1 cup (255g) of sweet potato mash (I used Japanese)
- 60g cheddar, grated
- 1 tablespoons of butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon of coconut flour
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, tapioca or arrowroot powder
- Black pepper to season
- Low calorie spray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180c fan, 200c or 400f (gas mark 6)
- Add all ingredients to a bowl and mix well to combine.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- Form mixture into 8 equal sized patties (or you can make smaller bitesize if you prefer) and place on parchment paper.
- Spray over the top with some spray oil and bake in the oven for approx 30-35 mins until golden.
- Serve as is or spread with your favorite topping.
- These are a little flatter than a normal scone, but are yummy and great on their own or as a side.

Wow! OK limited by availability of ingredients locally, I substituted almost all of them:´:-) Normal sweet potato instead of white, lowfat mozzarella instead of cheddar, margarine instead of ghee and extra coconut flour instead of tapioca. They still came out amazing! Really impressed, would never have known these weren't bread-based. Definitely a keeper recipe - thanks!
