Sweet Potato and Coconut Fritters with Avocado Crema

Ingredients

• 1 cup grated sweet potato
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (ensure it's free from allergens)
• 1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut milk
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• Pinch of salt
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil for frying
• 1/2 ripe avocado
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon water
• Pinch of salt

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the grated sweet potato, flour, shredded coconut, coconut milk, cilantro, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well combined.
2. Heat the coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
3. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot skillet, flattening them slightly to form fritters.
4. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
5. While the fritters cook, prepare the avocado crema: mash the avocado with lime juice, water, and salt until smooth.
6. Serve the sweet potato and coconut fritters warm, topped with a dollop of avocado crema.
