Hi college is BUSY and sweet potatoes take a LONG TIME. Time I don’t have! Of course I prefer the oven to the microwave, but in a pinch it’s a lifesaver.
What you’ll need:
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- Sea salt
- Cinnamon
- 2-3 tablespoons maple syrup
- Toasted pecans (optional)
- Pumpkin pie spice (optiona)
Lazy Fluffy Sweet Potato Mash
Steam two medium sweet potatoes in the microwave by wrapping each in a damp paper towel and throwing one more on top to cover both. Microwave for 7-8 minutes until tender. Remove from microwave and cut open, scooping flesh into a bowl. Toss in a few spoons of ghee, sea salt, cinnamon, and a generous few pours of maple syrup (the best part). Mash together. Top with whatever you’d like! I usually do toasted pecans (in the oven for ten minutes) and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice! .
