If your family didn't get a warm reception to healthy sweet potato mash, make something from the leftovers that's sure to please everyone. Mix the mashed potatoes with mascarpone cheese, cinnamon, and vanilla to create a delicious filling for crispy puff pastry. Fill store-bought puff pastry with the filling, bake mini puff pastry rolls, and serve sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. You'll be surprised how quickly these puff pastries will fly off the table.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Spray a non-stick baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the sweet potato puree, mascarpone, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla with a spatula. Set aside.

  3. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the puff pastry into a 25 x 32 cm rectangle. Using a circle cutter, cut 12 circles from the first sheet of dough. Working with one circle at a time, use your fingers to lightly flatten and widen each circle. Spoon 1 teaspoon of sweet potato filling into the center of the circle, brush the edge of the dough with beaten egg, and seal the filling into a semicircle, like a varenyk. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Repeat with the remaining dough circles and half the filling, spacing the puff pastry circles 2.5 cm apart, then cut out 12 circles from the remaining dough and fill them with filling in the same way.
  5. Brush the tops of the puff pastry with beaten egg and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Use a knife to poke a hole in the center of each puff pastry. Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 15 minutes. Serve hot.
