Tried out this recipe from Half Baked Harvest in my vitamix and it was so delicious! I wasn’t sure how I would like this crazy combo of sweet potatoes, maple syrup, cayenne and cheddar. I was thinking it could be amazing or it could be weird.
I bought precut sweet potato chunks and roasted them earlier in the week with coconut oil and thyme (357 degrees for 45min) and kept them in the fridge until I was ready to use. It cut the recipe time down by so much– easily made in 20mins or so.
I did the maple syrup and cinnamon in a pot as directed, but I put the sweet potatoes and stock in my vitamix. Once the syrup was done, I poured it through the top along with the other ingredients (apple cider, thyme, nutmeg, stock, etc). Then I set the blender to the soup setting.
When it was done, I opted for the full fat coconut milk (substitution for cream and no bourbon) and blended for a few minutes at 4-8. Then added grass fed butter and cheddar through the top as it continued to blend.
I served with a piece of sunflower bread, but I definitely want to see if I can get my kids to eat it with those suggests cheesy cinnamon sugar twists! If not, who wants to come over? haha!
