For kids, or if you’re not worry about calories- dip the balls in a bowl of oil and bake them. It really enhanced the taste. Our kids liked them lot more.

Directions

1. Steam/boil and mash purple potatoes
2. Beat in the 2 tablespoons of soy milk, until smooth. Set aside.
(Option: For richer taste, add 2 oz cream cream cheese and 1 tablespoon butter. ( didn’t use today))
3. I like to put the pumpkin in the micro oven for 4-5 minutes before I cut. (for safety) Cut into 4 pieces~ then cook pumpkin pieces either steam in micro oven or steam in the pot.
4. Beat in the 2 tablespoons until smooth. ( make sure it’s not too thick or thin, just enough to work)
5. Cut cheese sticks to about 1/4 inch
6. Make 3/4 inch balls with either purple potato or pumpkin.
7. Place cheese peices in the center of the balls
8. Cover the cheese and make smooth balls.
9. Cover second layer with either pumpkin or potato
10. drop in egg & roll in the crumbs and bake
11. Place the bread crumbs and egg in separate shallow bowls.Drop balls in egg , then roll in crumbs.
12. Place on lightly greased baking sheets. Bake at 400 for 18 – 20 minutes.
