4 Ingredient Sweet Potato Oatmeal Cookies (vegan)

Sweet potatoes are my favorite, especially for baking. I have been trying to cut back on sugar, so I made these 4 Ingredient Sweet Potato Oatmeal Cookies (vegan). These cookies have no added sweetener unless you add chocolate chips.

These cookies are not very sweet, so if you want them sweeter I recommend adding some coconut sugar. They would be perfect for breakfast because they have both oatmeal and almond butter. I love them for a healthy snack.
