Ingredients

  • 6 sweet potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons butter clarified if dairy free
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 12 oz bacon cooked and crumbled.
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary finely chopped, plus more for garnish
  • salt and pepper to taste.
  • dried cranberries optional garnish

Instructions

  • Prick sweet potatoes several times with a sharp knife. Bake in a preheated 375° oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until easily pierced with a fork.
  • Once the potatoes are cool to the touch, scrape out the flesh and place into a bowl. Mash with a fork or a potato masher.
  • Add coconut milk, eggs, rosemary, salt and pepper. Mash again.
  • Add bacon crumbles and stir to combine.
  • Transfer to a 9 x 13 or similar casserole dish.
  • Bake, covered at 350 for 30 minutes.
  • Serve with extra bacon crumbles, fresh rosemary, and dried cranberries as garnish.

Notes

This recipe is easily dairy free if you use clarified butter, or substitute coconut oil in place of the butter.
