Ingredients

  • 2-3 large peeled sweet potatoes, about 4-5 cups rough chopped in 1 inch cubes * Use 3 if on the smaller side
  • ¼-1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle powder * Use ½ if you like things a little spicy
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoon good, unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth
  • kosher salt to taste

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add peeled & chopped potatoes. Boil for about 20 minutes until potatoes are soft. Drain the potatoes.
  • In a food processor, combine spices, syrup, butter, and stock. Blend till combined. Then add the drained sweet potatoes while still hot. Puree for about 1 minute until smooth, scraping down the sides occasionally. Add more broth to thin out if needed. Serve immediately or place in a casserole dish and reheat at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes if serving later. 

Notes

  • If making this recipe migraine-friendly, consider using this stock recipe, or making you own vegetable broth. 
  • For a vegan option, use vegan butter or coconut oil to substitute.
