Doughnuts are such a sinful but delicious treat... if I make these, I'm sure I won't be able to stop at one!
ReplyDeletewe tried with tapioca starch but it didn't work... the whole dough became sticky and no matter how much all purpose flour we used, it remained sticky. any idea why??
ReplyDeleteYou have to let the sweet potatoes cool down completely, and make sure to knead the dough lightly.
