No Photo

Yield: about 6 cups

Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 2 cups + 1/4 cup light soy milk or skim milk
  • 2 cups water
  • 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup polenta or cornmeal

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. In a nonstick baking pan, bake sweet potatoes until tender. (Try to do this ahead of time because it takes 45 minutes to 1 hour.)
  3. Once they are cool, use a spoon to scoop flesh into a bowl and mash lightly with 1/4 cup of the milk. Set aside.
  4. In a large pot, combine remaining milk, water, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  5. Whisk in polenta or cornmeal. Bring mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, about 20 minutes, until mixture is thick enough for a spoon to stand upright in it.
  6. Stir mashed potatoes into pot, mixing well.
