Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Sweet Potato Gnocchi



Ingredients

2 sweet potatoes
1 egg
2 Cups of Almond Flour
1 glove garlic pressed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg


Method

Step 1
Preheat the oven for 350 degrees. Bake sweet potatoes for 30 min or until soft to the touch. Set sweet potatoes aside to cool.

Step 2
Once sweet potatoes are cool enough to work with remove peels and mash them.

Step 3
Blend in garlic, salt, nutmeg and egg. Mix in the flour a little at a time until you have soft dough. Use more or less flour as needed.

Step 4
Bring a large pot of water to boil. While you wait for the water make the gnocchi. On a floured surface, roll th dough out in several long snakes and cut into 1 inch sections. Drop the pieces into the boiling water. Allow them to cook until they float to the surface. Remove the floating pieces witha slotted spoon and keep in warm serving dish.


Storing the gnocchi
Gnocchi that you don’t eat immediately can be frozen for later. Just freeze them on the baking sheet and when they are completely frozen you can store them in a plastic bag for weeks without a problem. No need to thaw before cooking. Just add them straight to the boiling water.
