Spicy Sweet Potato Mash

This Spicy Sweet Potato Mash is an irresistible side dish that is perfect for the fall! There is a medley of flavors in this super simple dish, and they all blend together to create a sweet and spicy addition to any meal. This is a family favorite during Thanksgiving dinner, as the honey and spices mix so well with the sweet potato. If you’d like a whipped version of this recipe with fewer clumps, blend the roasted sweet potato in a food processor or with a handheld mixer.
Serves 4–6

4–5 large sweet potatoes, pierced and roasted until soft
2 tablespoons coconut butter
2 tablespoons raw organic honey
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1⁄2 teaspoon black pepper
1⁄2 teaspoon cumin

  1. Peel and cube the roasted sweet potatoes, place in a large bowl with coconut butter, and smash until fluffy.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients, and stir until fully combined. Enjoy!
