How to Make Sweet Potato Crackers

• Cool, remove skin and puree with milk to make a smooth mixture. You will need 1 cup of sweet potato puree.
• Beat sweet potato puree into flour and then turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead well (about 80 turns).
• Divide dough into 4 pieces and roll each very thin.
• Cut into rounds or squares. Sprinkle with salt, sesame seeds and a little cayenne, if desired.
