Serves: 1 big shake
Ingredients
  • ½ cup cooked, mashed sweet potatoes (I use leftover steamed sweet potatoes)
  • 1 medium to large (depending on how thick you like it) ripe frozen banana, broken into chunks
  • ½ to ¾ cup unsweetened milk alternative (I use coconut milk beverage)
  • 1 teaspoon ground flaxseed
  • ⅛ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 25mg scoop pure stevia extract, optional
  • ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch salt
  • ½ to 1 tablespoon maple syrup, or more to taste (coconut sugar or brown sugar also taste yummy in this)
  • Whipped coconut cream (I used the recipe in Go Dairy Free), for garnish, optional
  • Dash nutmeg, for garnish, optional
Instructions
  1. Place the sweet potato, banana, ½ cup of the milk alternative, flaxseed, vanilla, stevia (if using), cinnamon (start with ¼ teaspoon), salt, and ½ tablespoon of the maple syrup in your blender and whiz until smooth.
  2. If it is too thick, add more milk alternative as needed and blend.
  3. Give it a taste test. If you are like me, and adore cinnamon, go ahead and add more. If not sweet enough, blend in more maple syrup to taste.
  4. Garnish with whipped coconut cream and a dash of nutmeg, if desired.
