This is one of my go to smoothies, especially during the fall. This sweet potato smoothie is sweet, healthy, filling, and tastes like a pumpkin, or sweet potato pie! You can bake up the potatoes over the weekend for a quick and easy weekday breakfast smoothie. Even my kids love this one. You can double or triple the recipe if making it for the family!
Ingredients:
1 baked sweet potato
1 1/2 cups plant based milk
1/2 -1 cup ice
a few shakes of cinnamon
2 dried dates, or 1 tablespoon maple syrup
optional: 1 scoop of vegan protein powder
optional: 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
Peel baked sweet potato, Add it along with remaining ingredients to a blender and process until completely smooth. You can start with a half cup of ice and add more according to your preference. Top with a few shakes of extra cinnamon.
You can easily double the recipe if making multiple smoothies at one time. I often just bake up a half dozen sweet potatoes over the weekend and keep them in the fridge for smoothies throughout the week.
