Print Recipe
Equipment
- knife, cutting board, peeler, steamer or pot with a steamer insert, stove, large bowl or corning ware, spoon, measuring spoons
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sweet Potato (medallions or cubed) (about ¾ lbs)
- 2 tbsp Walnuts (hand crushed/crumbled)
- 1 tbsp Almond Butter
- 2 tbsp Flaxseed Meal (ground flax)
- 1 tbsp Organic Hemp Powder, unsweetened plain
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 tbsp Raw Honey
- ¼ tsp Nutmeg
Instructions
- Wash, peel and slice your sweet potatoes into 1/4" medallions (or so).
- Place 1" of water in a steamer or a pot with a steamer insert. Steam the sweet potatoes over medium-high heat for 7-12 minutes, or until soft. (Timing depends on whether you're doubling or multiplying this recipe!)
- Layer your sweet potatoes with the flax and hemp protein powder. In the middle, add a sprinkle of cinnamon and the tbsp of almond butter. (I use a spoon and then press the next sweet potato onto it so it spreads out easily).
- Sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top, and add a drizzle of honey. Top with crushed walnuts!
