Direction:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

4. Add the flour mixture to the sweet potatoes and toss until they are evenly coated.

 

5. Drizzle the olive oil over the sweet potatoes and toss again until they are coated in oil.

 

6. Spread the sweet potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

 

7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping the tots halfway through, until they are crispy and golden brown.

 

8. While the tots are baking, make the Cajun sauce (see recipe below).

 

9. Serve the sweet potato tots hot with the Cajun sauce for dipping.
