Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato (about 1½ cups mashed)

Instructions
- Prepare the sweet potato: Peel and dice the sweet potato. Boil or steam until fork-tender, then mash until smooth.
- Blend the ingredients: In a food processor, pulse the mashed sweet potato, oats, and egg until a dough forms. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more oats.
- Shape the crust: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the dough into a ¼-inch thick circle.
- Bake: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 20-25 minutes until firm and slightly golden.
