Creating these delicious bites is straightforward and quick. Follow these easy steps to enjoy your savory snack in no time:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Peel and dice sweet potatoes, then boil them until soft, about 15 minutes. Once cooked, drain and mash them thoroughly.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, black beans, breadcrumbs, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the ingredients are well integrated.
4. Form the mixture into small balls using your hands, ensuring they are compact and even in size. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Brush the balls lightly with olive oil, ensuring an even coat to help them turn golden brown.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the bites are golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside.
