Sweet Potato Dip Recipes

ROASTED SWEET POTATO DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
• Place the potato on the baking sheet, and using a fork, repeatedly pierce the top of the sweet potato to keep it from exploding in the oven.
• Bake in the preheated oven until sweet potato is fork-tender and cooked through, 45 to 50 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Cut sweet potato in half once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh, and place in a food processor or blender. Add cilantro, lime juice, tahini, garlic, cumin, salt, and red pepper flakes. Blend until well combined and smooth. Taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Spoon dip into a bowl, garnish with chopped pistachios, and serve.

SPICY SWEET POTATO DIP

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking/roasting tray with parchment paper.
• Peel sweet potato and cut into one-inch cubes. Smash/flatten you garlic cloves with a knife.
• Spread garlic and sweet potato spaced on a parchment-lined baking/roasting tray and drizzle with oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and roast for 30 minutes or until tender and easily mashed with a fork.
• Allow to cool slightly, then add to a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.
• Add tahini, salt, cayenne pepper, smoked paprika, cumin and the juice from 1/2 a lime. Blend well. For a thinner consistency, add a little water (1 TBSP at a time) and continue blending until smooth and creamy. I like mine extra thick!
• Pour contents into a small serving bowl and surround with your choice of fluffy flatbread, pita chips, and carrot sticks. For a side-dish vibe, use the dip as a flavorful base for your favorite protein and veggies. Enjoy!

SWEET POTATO DIP

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat an oven to 425 F.
• Scrub the sweet potato clean and put it in the oven to roast until it's tender when pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes. Alternatively, you can cook the sweet potato in a microwave-poke the sweet potato all over with a fork and microwave on high in 1-minute increments until the sweet potato is tender all the way through, about 6 minutes total.
• When the sweet potato is done, let it sit at room temperature until it's cool enough to handle, at least 30 minutes. Remove and discard the peel and put the roasted, peeled sweet potato in a food processor . Pulse a few times just to start to break the sweet potato down.
• Peel and mince the garlic and add it to the sweet potato. Pulse to combine. Add in the almond butter, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper, to the sweet potato. Whirl, scraping the sides of the bowl down with a spatula as necessary to keep the mixture together until the mixture is silky smooth.
• Add salt and lemon juice to taste. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl. Serve immediately or cover and chill for up to three days.
• Enjoy.
