Ingredients
- 4-5 small-medium sweet potatoes ((3 pounds))
- 3 cloves garlic ((do not peel away all of the paper))
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- oil, to coat
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Roast your sweet potatoes. Rinse sweet potatoes and poke holes in them with either a fork or a knife. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 50-55 minutes or until tender and soft to the touch. Make sure they are roasted all the way through and there are no hard spots.
- Roast your garlic. When there are about 15-20 minutes left on the sweet potatoes, rub cloves of garlic with oil, wrap in tin foil, and place on the baking sheet in the oven. Let roast the remaining time.
- Peel skin from sweet potatoes. Once roasted sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven. Let cool for a minute and remove the skin. The skin should pull away from the flesh and should be easy to remove.
- Whip sweet potatoes. Place peeled sweet potatoes, roasted garlic, tahini, cinnamon, and salt and pepper in the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl. Whip with the whisk attachment or with a hand mixer until evenly combined, about 2-3 minutes. You can also mash with a potato masher if you don't have a mixer. Try not to over-mix.
- Enjoy! Garnish with more tahini and cinnamon and enjoy!
