Sticky Date Sweet Potato Slice

With their gorgeously sweet flesh, it’s no wonder that sweet potatoes are so versatile, suitable for both savoury and sweet cooking. Being part of the morning glory plant family, they’re actually not related to regular potatoes either and as such, they are far less starchy.

This Sticky Date & Sweet Potato Slice recipe is wheat free, refined sugar free and dairy free too.

But before you start, I have just one simple tip and that is to chop the dates as finely as possible, because the smaller they are, the better the sweetness will be distributed throughout the slice.
