Ingredients
- 2 sweet potato
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Wash sweet potatoes and poke holes with a fork (about 4 for each potato). Place potatoes on a baking sheet and place in the center of the oven.
- Bake for about 60 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are a bit wrinkly and fork tender.
- Remove from oven and let cool. Once cool enough to handle, use your hands to peel the skin away from the flesh. Discard the skin (or snack on it).
- Add potato flesh to your food processor and blend until smooth.
- Use in recipes that call for sweet potato puree, serve as baby food or add seasonings to make a delicious side dish.
