- ⅔ cup (160 milliliters) non-dairy milk
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) nut or seed butter of choice (cashew)
Flavor Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) ground flax
- 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt
Optional Toppings:
- pomegranate
- pumpkin seeds
- coconut yogurt
- cacao nibs

Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400°F and prepare a baking tray with parchment paper or silicone mat.
- Thoroughly rinse sweet potatoes without peeling, then puncture several times with a sharp knife to allow steam release.
- Roast sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes until they develop a caramelized exterior and become soft enough to ooze slightly.
- Extract the tender sweet potato flesh into a spacious mixing bowl, carefully separating from the skin.
- Incorporate non-dairy milk, ground flax, nut butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a delicate salt sprinkle into the sweet potato flesh.
- Utilize a hand mixer on low speed to whip and integrate the ingredients, continuously blending for 60-90 seconds until achieving a smooth, creamy consistency.
- Alternatively, transfer mixture to a food processor and blend for 2-3 minutes to ensure complete smoothness.
- Distribute the velvety mixture evenly into serving bowls.
- Embellish with an artistic arrangement of optional toppings like vibrant pomegranate seeds, crunchy pumpkin seeds, creamy coconut yogurt, rich cacao nibs, or hearty granola.
- Serve immediately while warm for optimal texture and flavor enjoyment.
- Refrigerate any remaining portions, which will maintain quality for up to 5 days.
Notes
- Bake sweet potatoes whole to preserve nutrients and enhance natural caramelization, creating a deeper, richer flavor profile.
- Whip the sweet potato mixture thoroughly to achieve an ultra-creamy, fluffy texture that resembles a luxurious breakfast pudding.
- Use non-dairy milk and flax as binding agents to create a vegan-friendly, protein-packed breakfast option that’s both nutritious and satisfying.
- Customize toppings to add crunch, freshness, and variety, transforming the basic recipe into a personalized morning meal.
- Prepare in advance and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, making it an excellent meal-prep option for busy mornings.
- Choose organic sweet potatoes with vibrant orange flesh for maximum sweetness and nutritional density.
