Ingredients

  • 4-5 small-medium sweet potatoes (about 1350 grams)
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoons tahini
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • oil, to coat
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • 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 soft to the touch.
  • When there is 20 minutes left on the sweet potatoes, rub peeled cloves of garlic with oil and place on baking sheet in the oven. Let roast the remaining time.
  • Once sweet potatoes are done, remove from oven. Let cool a minute and remove skin. The skin should be pulling away from the flesh and should be easy to remove.
  • 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 whisk attachment or with a hand mixer until evenly combined, about 2-3 minutes. Try not to over mix.
  • Top with more tahini and cinnamon and enjoy!
