3. Mash sweet potato in a bowl and add cinnamon
4. Grind nuts in a food processor or blender until you have some finely ground but still some bigger chunks
5. Spoon about 1-2 tbsp of sweet potato and roll into a ball with your palm as best you can
6. Roll the ball in egg whites and then roll in the nuts until completely coated
7. Place the balls on a greased pan and cook for about 15-20 min making sure the nuts don’t burn
