Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized (approximately 300g each) Sweet potatoes
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 0.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter or coconut oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into small cubes for quicker cooking.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the sweet potato cubes and cauliflower florets. Boil for about 15 minutes, or until both the sweet potatoes and cauliflower are fork-tender.
Step 3
Drain the sweet potatoes and cauliflower well and transfer them to a blender or food processor.
Step 4
Add the almond milk, butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option), garlic powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Blend or process the mixture until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides a few times to ensure an even consistency.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. If you prefer a thinner puree, you can add a bit more almond milk, one tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition.
Step 7
Serve warm as a side dish with your favorite protein or vegetables. Enjoy!
