Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prick sweet potato several times with a fork.
- Heat sweet potato in a microwave on high until tender, about 6 minutes. Cut potato in half and scoop flesh out of the skin into a bowl; discard skin. Mash potato with a fork or potato masher and transfer about 1 cup to a large bowl. Save any remaining sweet potato for another use.
- Mix whole wheat flour, applesauce, and eggs in the large bowl with the sweet potato until a dough forms. Turn dough out on a well-floured surface and roll dough to about 1/2-inch thick. Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter or cut dough into strips with a pizza cutter. Arrange cookies on an ungreased baking sheet.
- Bake until crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:
- Overcook the sweet potatoes. Either bake them in foil, steam, roast (I'm sure roasting would give them an even nicer flavour) or bbq. Get them overcooked so they are really soft and you can mash them with a fork.
- Add applesauce (we used an Organics Applesauce snack cup. I think it might have been sweetened, so you may need to add some sugar to tast if you use unsweetened).
- Add Cinnamon.
- Mash it all together with a fork, or use a blender for a smoother texture and serve.

Tips:
- For a smoother mash, use a potato ricer or food mill instead of a fork or masher.
- If you don't have brown sugar, you can substitute an equal amount of granulated sugar.
- To make the mash ahead of time, prepare it as directed and then let it cool completely. Store the mash in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze it for up to 2 months.
- To reheat the mash, place it in a saucepan over low heat and stir until warmed through. You can also reheat the mash in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until warmed through.
- Serve the mash with your favorite toppings, such as butter, salt and pepper, gravy, or crumbled bacon.
