  • 1 teaspoon agave syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 175 degrees.
  2. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat silicone baking mat.
  3. Cut sweet potato and fruit into 1 inch pieces and place in a microwave safe bowl or large glass measuring cup. You should have approximately 4 cups total
