1 1/2 lbs. raw yams or sweet potato(es)
3/4 cup canned undrained garbanzo beans
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. white pepper
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Steam or boil yams (or sweet potatoes) until barely tender, approximately 15 minutes, let cool. Peel. Shred yams using a grater or food processor. Puree garbanzo beans, including liquid until smooth. Combine shredded yams and pureed garbanzo beans with remaining ingredients. Spray baking sheet pans with non-stick spray. Place scoops of potato mixture 1 inch apart on the prepared pan. Bake at 400 degrees for approximately 10-12 minutes, until starting to brown.
