Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded sweet potatoes, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and milk together. Pour the egg mixture into the sweet potato mixture and stir until just combined.

3. In a small bowl, beat the butter, cinnamon, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.

4. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 2-3 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F.

5. Scoop heaping tablespoons of the sweet potato batter and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown.

6. Drain the hushpuppies on a paper towel-lined plate.

7. Serve the hushpuppies warm with the cinnamon butter dip on the side.

Notes

For extra flavor, you can add finely chopped onions or jalapeños to the batter. The cinnamon butter dip can also be used as a dip for other fried or roasted vegetables.
