Ingredients to make sweet potato panellets:
1. Before starting with the homemade panellets recipe, leave all ingredients ready and preheat the oven at 200 ºC.
2. Then, mix the ground almond with the sugar in a bowl with sufficient capacity. Done this, beat the eggs apart and incorporate them to this mixture. You can integrate the beaten eggs with a spoon or spatula.
3. Once well mixed, to continue with the panellet dough you must peel the sweet potato and chop it as you see in the image. In this way it will be easier for you to integrate it later.
4. Now add the sweet potato chopped to the mixture and love everything with your hands, but you will not be able to integrate it correctly. You must knead until a consistent mass, similar to that of the cookies but less compact. Let the dough of sweet potato panellets rest for two hours to harden a little.
5. Past time, knead again and make small balls with your hands to form homemade panellets. The balls should be very large the size of a golf ball. Then, prepare the ingredients for the decorations of the sweet potato panellets in separate containers.
6. To decorate the panellets, take a ball and blaze it in the pine nuts. With this ingredient you are likely to have to press the balls a little so that the pinions are well stuck.
7. With the chopped almond and chocolate chips you must do the same, but without the need to press the sweet potato panellets, since these ingredients are easily adhered to the sweet.
8. And if you want to decorate them with cherries, simply cut the cherries in half, crush the dough balls, with your finger a hole in the center and place the half cherry inside.
9. Now, place the panellets of pinions with sweet potato, and everyone else, on a metal tray suitable for oven, or fodder with vegetable paper the tray you normally use. Beat a separate egg and with a kitchen brush paints all panellets so that the decorations are fixed completely. Then bake them for 15-20 minutes, watching that they do not burn since depending on the power of the oven they can take less to be done.
10. When they are ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool before eating them. It is tradition to serve this sweet during the night of October 31, accompanied by roasted and sweet potato chests with cinnamon and sugar. And if you liked the panellet recipe you liked but you want to meet other variants, you should know that it is also possible to prepare them with potatoes.
