Roast for twenty to twenty-five minutes, or until the potatoes are soft. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down a bit. Bring the oven temperature down to 190C 375F. Put some flour on a surface and roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle that is about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into squares that are 2 inches across. Put some roasted sweet potatoes on top of each square of puff pastry. Then, fold the pastry over to make a triangle. Use a fork to press the edges together to seal. Place the filled pastries on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper, making sure there is some space between each one. If you want, you can use maple syrup as a glaze on top of the pastries. The dough should be golden brown and crispy after 15 to 20 minutes in the oven. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down a bit before you serve it. Have fun with these tasty vegan sweet potato puff pastries!
