    Homemade Sweet Potato S’mores with Grain-Free Graham Crackers

    By Alisa Fleming on June 7, 2015 Dairy Free Desserts, Dairy-Free Recipes, Dairy-Free Snack Recipes

    Who says s’mores can’t be a year round pleasure? To kick off summer sweets, we have this amazing homemade recipe for sweet potato s’mores that can be enjoyed right through fall and winter!

    This Homemade Sweet Potato S’mores Recipe comes complete with healthy grain-free graham crackers (optionally vegan) and an easy dairy-free sweet potato butter. The whole recipe is gluten-free and perfect for enjoying year round!The sweet potato s’mores recipe and photo were shared with us by the Louisianna Sweet Potato Commission.

    This sweet potato s’mores recipe starts with hearty gluten-free, grain-free graham crackers naturally sweetened with dates and honey or agave. The nuttiness makes for a hearty snack, too and a relatively healthy dessert.

    Sweet potatoes are a wonderful choice here as they are available year round. You can get the canned puree or buy fresh, cook, and puree yourself. Either way, the simple dairy-free sweet potato butter is great on these sweet potato s’mores, with oatmeal, spread on toast, in smoothies – you name it! Also, if you want all to cook at once, simply place the sweet potato butter mixture in your crockpot and let it cook on low while the crackers dehydrate in your oven. If you want to avoid the oven altogether, the crackers can be made in a dehydrator instead!
