Equipment

  • High Powered Blender or Food Processor

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups steamed and then frozen sweet potato (peel, cut into chunks and steam, then freeze)
  • 1/2 cup steamed and then frozen cauliflower rice
  • 1/2 fresh avocado (or 1/2 c frozen)
  • 3 Tbsp cacao powder or cocoa powder
  • 3 Tbsp whole milk Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup additional coconut or almond milk ONLY add to desired thickness

Instructions

  • To prep the sweet potatoes: Peel and cut into large chunks. Drop into steamer pan over large pot of boiling water and steam 12-15 minutes, until very tender. Let cool. Then freeze in silicone bag. (I've tried to freeze in a glass bowl, but this is a problem when you have to chisel pieces of sweet potato out of the bowl. In the bag, you can whack it against the counter to break up the pieces.)
  • Add all ingredients (except extra coconut milk) to a blender/food processor and blend. Scrape down the sides a few times, to make sure all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Trust me, you do not want a chunk of sweet potato slowing you down. Or pulling you out of the illusion.
  • Add more coconut milk if you want it thicker. But for a pudding consistency, thickness is good.
  • Add to a bowl and top with pumpkin seeds, peanuts, almonds, cacao nibs, pistachios, coconut flakes. Really, anything that moves you.
