Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium (about 2 lbs) Sweet potatoes
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons Garlic powder
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into 1-inch chunks for even cooking.
Place the sweet potato chunks into a large pot and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender.
Drain the sweet potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot.
Add the unsweetened almond milk, olive oil, ground cinnamon, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the pot with the sweet potatoes.
Using a potato masher or an immersion blender, mash the sweet potatoes until they reach your desired consistency. For a creamier texture, blend the mash with the immersion blender.
Taste the mash and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, pepper, or cinnamon as needed.
Serve immediately as a healthy side dish, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
