Sesame Potato Puffs

These potato puffs are the perfect party appetizer, they’re easy, affordable, and so snack-worthy. We give them a nice crunch by rolling them in sesame seeds, which give an excellent nutritional boost. Full of healthy fats, calcium and protein the seeds add much more then flavor. You can make these with sweet potato as well and they would be delicious. Bake in the oven until golden brown on the outside and chewy inside. Reminiscent of tater tots, knishes, and bourekas,  they make a wonderful weeknight snack as well. Serve with condiment of choice, subtly spiced ketchup works beautifully. Naturally vegan and gluten-free these work for just about everyone. Enjoy!
