A dairy-free, nut-free, gluten-free family favorite!
Everyone loves sweet potatoes, they are a great alternative to regular, starchy white potatoes. This is why I decided to try a gluten-free mashed sweet potato recipe! They are packed with fiber to help with digestion and contain beta-carotene, which is a potent anti-oxidant.
Sweet potatoes are typically used in casseroles or topped with butter or sugar. This healthier, gluten-free mashed sweet potato recipe uses the good fat of coconut milk and the sweetness of cinnamon and ginger to make a healthy meal or side dish for your family.
Mashed Sweet Potatoes
1 1/2 lbs. medium sweet potatoes
1 Tbsp. honey
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger
3/4 cup coconut milk
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
Peel and chop sweet potatoes and then boil them until tender. Drain the water from potatoes. Using an electric mixer, beat the potatoes until fluffy or use a potato masher to mash.
Add 1 Tbsp. of honey and 1/2 tsp. of sea salt, and then beat again.
Transfer the potatoes to an oven safe dish and add coconut milk, cinnamon and ginger and stir well.
Reheat in the oven for 8-10 minutes.
Serve warm & enjoy!
