Sweet Potato Gnocchi Recipe
A fluffy, golden vegan gnocchi made from sweet potatoes, flour, and simple ingredients — soft, savory, and totally satisfying comfort food.
Ingredients
Method
- Boil sweet potatoes until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain, peel, and mash them until smooth.
- Let them cool slightly — patience, darling, it’s worth it.
- Add salt, pepper, olive oil, and nutritional yeast (if using). Mix well.
- Gradually add flour, combining until a soft dough forms — not sticky, not dry, just perfect.
- Transfer to a floured surface and divide into smaller portions.
- Roll each portion into a long rope about ½ inch thick.
- Cut into small 1-inch pieces and use a fork to gently press ridges.
- Bring a pot of salted water to boil and drop the gnocchi in batches.
- When they float to the surface, they’re done — rescue them immediately!
- In a pan, melt vegan butter and sauté the cooked gnocchi until lightly golden.
- Garnish with fresh sage and serve hot with confidence.
