Ingredients
- 1 pound batata [0.45 kg] (sweet potato), peeled
- 3 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 cups milk (whole or skim) (full fat or evaporated)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ¾ cup sugar (white, granulated) (may not be used all)
Instructions
Boil batata
- Cut the sweet potatoes into small pieces. Boil over medium heat in salted water until it's fork-tender. Remove from the water, discard water, and let the batata cool to room temperature. Once cool mash a bit (only necessary if you don't have a strong blender).
Blend
- In the blender container, mix sweet potatoes, milk, coconut milk, vanilla, and sugar. Blend to a liquid state. Taste and add more sugar to taste if you find it necessary (I did not).
Freeze
- Pour into the popsicle molds (Amazon affiliate links) or little paper cups, cover, and insert popsicle sticks int he center of each mold. Freeze solid. Serve once frozen.
