Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Sweet potatoes
- 0.25 cups Coconut milk (unsweetened, full-fat)
- 1 tablespoon Ghee
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 1.5 inches in size to ensure even cooking.
Place the sweet potato chunks into a medium-sized pot. Fill the pot with enough water to cover the potatoes by about an inch.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the temperature to a simmer. Cook the sweet potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.
Once cooked, carefully drain the sweet potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot or a mixing bowl.
Add the unsweetened coconut milk, ghee, salt, and ground cinnamon to the sweet potatoes.
Use an immersion blender, potato masher, or food processor to blend the mixture until it is completely smooth and creamy. If needed, adjust the consistency by adding a small amount of additional coconut milk.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or cinnamon to suit your preferences.
Serve the sweet potato puree warm as a side dish, garnished with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon if desired.
