Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 4 cups mashed)
- 1/4–1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla non-dairy milk (such as almond milk)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons unsalted almond butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to get it ready for baking the sweet potatoes.
- Wash the sweet potatoes: Use a vegetable brush to clean the sweet potatoes thoroughly. Place them on a baking sheet lined with foil for easy cleanup.
- Bake the potatoes: Bake the sweet potatoes in the oven for 45-60 minutes or until they can be easily pierced with a fork, ensuring they are cooked through and soft.
- Cool the potatoes: Allow the sweet potatoes to cool enough to handle. Then carefully peel off the skin and transfer the flesh into a large mixing bowl.
- Mix ingredients until fluffy: Add the non-dairy milk, vanilla extract, almond butter, maple syrup, cinnamon, and ground flax seeds to the mashed sweet potatoes. Using an electric mixer, beat everything together until the mixture is light and fluffy. You can serve this as is or warm it gently on the stovetop if it had been refrigerated.
- Serve: Spoon the fluffy sweet potato mixture into bowls. Enhance your breakfast by topping it with fresh fruit, banana bread granola, and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
Notes
- Ensure sweet potatoes are fully baked for the best texture and natural sweetness.
- You can adjust the amount of non-dairy milk based on your desired consistency.
- Maple syrup can be substituted with honey if not strictly paleo.
- This bowl can be made ahead and refrigerated; just warm before serving if preferred.
- Add toppings like nuts, seeds, or coconut flakes for extra texture and nutrition.
