Here at home, savory recipes always run out quickly, inspired by my blender sweet potato cake (which was very successful) I decided to create a new sweet potato cake recipe, but this time in salty version.

This savory sweet potato cake recipe is dense, nutritious, protein-rich and will satisfy your hunger! It is simple to prepare and made entirely in the blender.

SIMPLE SALTY SWEET POTATO CAKE RECIPE IN A BLENDER

I love blender recipes, you first beat the liquid ingredients, then the dry ingredients, add the filling, mix well and finish with baking powder, super practical!

You can vary the filling and use whatever you have in the fridge. I used colonial sausage, black olives and walnuts, a delicious combination that surprised my taste buds.

VARIING THE FILLING OF THE SALTY SWEET POTATO CAKE

For this savory sweet potato cake recipe you will need 1 cup of your favorite filling, but be careful with very moist fillings!

When you use very moist vegetables as a filling, this natural moisture in the ingredients can ruin the structure of the dough, so do not use more than 1/4 cup of vegetables such as:

  • Tomato (preferably use seedless)
  • Zucchini
  • Pepper
  • Chayote
  • Palm heart
  • Cabbage

Filling Suggestions:

  • 1/4 cup chopped tomatoes + 1/2 cup broccoli + 1/4 cup corn
  • 1/2 cup chopped cauliflower + 1/4 cup onion + 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/3 cup shredded chicken + 1/3 cup sliced olives + 1/3 cup peas
  • 1/4 cup grated pumpkin + 1/4 cup sliced red cabbage + 1/4 cup capers + 1/4 cup grated carrots

TEXTURE OF SALTY SWEET POTATO CAKE

This sweet potato cake recipe is soft and delicious, it is not extremely fluffy like a cake made with sugar, but for me, this is the ideal texture.

The combination of almond flour, quinoa flour and sweet potato make this recipe protein-rich and very nutritious.

You will notice how this potato cake recipe promotes satiety, so it is ideal for breakfast, a snack or even dinner if you accompany it with a good salad.

  2. Blend all wet ingredients in a blender until smooth. smooth dough.

Notes

  • You can bake this recipe in a 20 x 30 cm shape. I usually grease it with a little oil and then sprinkle rice flour.
  • You can use any vegetable oil you prefer.
  • You can use peanut flour instead of almond flour to make this recipe cheaper. Peanut flour has a more dominant flavor in the recipe.
  • This recipe does not work with “vegetable eggs”.
  • This recipe will not work with cooked sweet potatoes.

DURABILITY OF SALTY SWEET POTATO CAKE

As this is a recipe that uses sweet potatoes, eggs and no sugar, it tends to last less time outside the refrigerator, especially on hotter days.

If it is very hot the recipe will last at most 2 days out of the fridge, but refrigerated it lasts for a few 5 or 6 days.

You can slice the sweet potato cake into portions and freeze inside a freezer-safe plastic bag for up to 3 months.

Remember not to overlap the slices so that the slices do not stick together. To defrost place the portion in the refrigerator overnight or defrost in the microwave on a paper towel, 15 seconds on each side.

    Your recipes are great and you detail them very well, this is important so we don't make mistakes.
    In this recipe, can I substitute quinoa flour for oat flour?






  6. Hi Elisabete, I'm glad to hear that you're understanding the recipes correctly. Quinoa flour absorbs more moisture than oat flour, so I don't recommend substituting it unless you already have more experience in gluten-free cooking. Kisses

  7. I loved it but I'm vegan, can I make it without eggs? Please say yes, I need to say I really want to.
