Bake sweet potatoes in Dutch oven on baker's rack until soft. Cool and peel. Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil until just tender.
Mash the potatoes in a bowl, add onions and garlic with all remaining ingredients and mix well. Chill mixture in cooler for 15 minutes if desired, as this will help to easier form the cakes.
Form batter into small cakes or patties. Heat oil in skillet and drop in cakes, frying until golden brown on each side. Serve with a small dollop of Maple-Jalapeño Sour Cream.
