Preheat oven to 350F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix together the oats, cinnamon, ginger, all-spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Using a fork , add the peanut butter to the dry ingredients and cut-in until all combined.
Add in the egg, vanilla, and maple syrup. Stir in the cooled sweet potatoes and white chocolate chips, mixing until combined.
