Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 4 Medium Sweet Potatoes, diced in even sized cubes (~4 servings) *skin removal is optional
• 1 tablespoon ghee
• 2-3 tablespoons Nut Milk or Plant-Based Yogurt
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon turmeric
• ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
• Pink or sea salt & cracked pepper to taste
• Handful of chopped raw nuts of choice, toasted

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 425℉ and line a baking dish with parchment paper / foil.

Toss chopped sweet potatoes with ghee and seasonings until thoroughly coated. Spread onto prepared baking dish. Bake for about 30 minutes until fork tender.

While potatoes roast, heat a dry saucepan over medium low heat. Add nuts of choice and toast, making sure to stir often. Remove from heat when just golden and fragrant.

Transfer cooked potatoes to a heat-proof mixing bowl. Add milk or yogurt and seasonings. Using a hand or stand mixer, combine all ingredients and mash potatoes until desired consistency.

Serve with toasted nuts.

*You can also prepare this recipe by steaming the potatoes instead of roasting using a steamer basket on the stove.
