Homemade sweet potato gnocchi
A big bowl of comfort and hands down one of our favourite vegan fall recipes. Homemade sweet potato gnocchi served with vegan pesto and sage breadcrumbs. Golden and crispy on the outside and soft and lovely on the inside.

Ingredients (serves 2):
- 3 medium sweet potatoes
- 250g flour
- 4 tbsp vegan sun-dried tomato pesto
- 100ml vegan cream
- 80g vegan butter
- 1 tsp salt
For the sage breadcrumbs:
- 1 slice of stale bread
- 9-10 fresh sage leaves
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 190°C. Pick the sweet potatoes a few times with a fork and bake in the oven for about 45 minutes until soft, then set aside to cool.
- Once cool, scoop the flesh of the sweet potatoes into a wide bowl. Using a fork or potato masher mash until smooth.
- Add salt and flour and mix until well combined. Knead and add more flour if needed.
- As the dough becomes easier to handle, transfer it to a floured working surface. Form into a ball, cut into quarters and roll each piece into a thin rope-like shape.

- Heat vegan butter in a large skillet over medium. Add gnocchi and pan-fry until golden brown on the outside.
