Sweet Potato Base
Mix-ins
- 2 tbsp unsalted almond butter
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (Simply Organic recommended)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup (grade A amber rich for best flavor)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp ground flaxseed
- Prepare and Bake the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Thoroughly wash the sweet potatoes with a veggie brush to remove any dirt. Place them on a baking sheet lined with foil to catch drippings, then bake for 45-60 minutes or until a fork pierces easily.
- Cool and Scoop the Potatoes: After baking, let the potatoes cool until safe to handle. Peel off the skins carefully and transfer the flesh into a large mixing bowl. Discard or save the skins for another use.
- Mix and Fluff the Potatoes: Add almond butter, almond milk, vanilla extract, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and ground flaxseed to the bowl with the potato flesh. Use an electric mixer to beat the mixture until fluffy and well combined. If prepared ahead and refrigerated, gently warm on stove over low heat before serving.
- Serve with Toppings: Spoon the fluffy sweet potato mixture into bowls. Garnish with fresh fruit, banana bread granola, and an extra sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor and presentation. Enjoy it as a comforting, nutritious breakfast or side dish.
Notes
- Ensure sweet potatoes are fully baked before scooping for the best texture.
- Adjust almond milk quantity to reach desired consistency.
- Use grade A amber maple syrup for richer flavor.
- Optional toppings include sliced bananas, berries, or your favorite granola.
- Can be reheated gently on stovetop if prepared in advance.
