Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Equipment

  • Baking pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Fork
  • Fork scraper
  • Pot
  • Slotted spoon
  • Bowl

Method

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the sweet potatoes and prick them all over with a fork. Place them on a baking pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until they are soft.
  2. Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Peel the skin off the sweet potatoes and mash them with a fork in a mixing bowl.
  3. Add the egg, salt, and black pepper to the mashed sweet potatoes and mix them well with a fork.
  4. Add the flour to the sweet potato mixture a little at a time and mix well with a fork scraper until the dough comes together.
  5. Dust a clean surface with flour and divide the dough into 4 equal parts. Roll each part into a long rope shape about 1/2 inch thick.
  6. Cut the rope shape into 1-inch pieces and place them on a floured surface.
  7. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water in small batches and cook for about 2-3 minutes or until they float to the surface.
  8. Use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked gnocchi from the pot and place them in a bowl.
  9. Serve the sweet potato gnocchi with your favorite sauce and enjoy!

Notes

  • If the dough is too sticky, add more flour a little at a time until it comes together.
  • If the dough is too dry, add a little water a few drops at a time until it comes together.
  • You can freeze the uncooked gnocchi for up to 2 months.
  • Be sure to use a slotted spoon to remove the cooked gnocchi from the pot to prevent them from breaking apart.
