Sweet Potato Chocolate Pudding Instructions
Place the sweet potato and dates into a medium-sized pot and cover with 2 cups of water (470ml) water (make sure to take the pits out of the dates). Turn the heat to medium, place a lid on the pot, and set a timer for 15 minutes. Make the Nut Crumble while your potatoes / dates are cooking.
Transfer the sweet potatoes and dates to a strainer and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
Add the cooked sweet potato and dates to your food processor, along with the milk, cacao powder, maple syrup, tahini and salt. Process until super creamy and smooth and allow to cool before you store in the fridge.
Serve the chilled Pudding with some Nut Crumble sprinkled on top.
Nut Crumble Instructions
