Ingredients
- 1 cup loosely packed sweet potato purée
- 1 medium ripe banana ((previously sliced and frozen))
- 1 Tbsp almond butter ((optional))
- 1/4 tsp each ground turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger ((if using fresh ginger, use 1 tsp chopped per 1/4 tsp dried))
- 1/2 Tbsp flaxseed meal or chia seeds
- 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/4 cup orange juice ((optional))
- 1 large handful ice
Steps
-
To bake your sweet potato, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 C) and split in half lengthwise. Lightly oil and place face down on a foil or parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until soft - 25-30 minutes.
-
Or, to steam, place in a steamer basket over 2 inches of simmering water and cover to steam for roughly 5-10 minutes or until fork tender. Let cool slightly before adding to blender.
-
Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
-
Taste and adjust seasonings/sweetness as needed. Add more banana or orange for added sweetness, and more ice to thicken.
-
Split between two small glasses and serve. Garnish with extra cinnamon.
