Description

A wholesome and protein-packed take on classic sweet potato pie, served in charming jars.


Ingredients

  • Sweet Potatoes (2 medium)
  • Vanilla Protein Powder (1 scoop)
  • Cinnamon (1 tsp)
  • Maple Syrup (2 tbsp)
  • Almond Milk (1 cup)
  • Greek Yogurt (½ cup)
  • Graham Cracker Crumbs (½ cup)
  • Chopped Nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash your sweet potatoes and prick them all over with a fork. Bake for about 45-60 minutes until soft.
  2. Once the sweet potatoes are done, let them cool, then peel away the skins and mash the flesh until smooth.
  3. In a larger bowl, combine mashed sweet potatoes, vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, maple syrup, almond milk, and Greek yogurt. Stir until incorporated.
  4. Grab your jars and start layering by adding sweet potato filling followed by graham cracker crumbs. Continue layering until jars are full.
  5. Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld.
  6. When ready to serve, stir gently and add a dollop of Greek yogurt, maple syrup, or cinnamon on top as desired.

Notes

Experiment with different toppings and variations, including chocolate, nut butters, or fruits.
