Sweet Potatoes and Roasted Bananas
Sweet Potatoes and Roasted Bananas
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds sweet potatoes Scrubbed
- 3 medium bananas Peeled and cut in half across
- 2 tsp coconut oil
- 3 tbsp orange liqueur can use orange juice and/or rum
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- 1/8 tsp Cayenne Pepper
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 1/4 tsp iodized sea salt
- 3 tbsp organic brown sugar
- 1 tbsp chopped cilantro optional
Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Use a sharp fork to pierce the potatoes in several places; place on oven rack with foil covered baking sheet on rack below to catch drips. Bake 50 minutes or until flesh is tender when pierced by fork. 2. While potatoes are baking, put bananas in a baking dish coated with coconut oil and bake until they are oozing caramel, about 20 minutes (you can put them in the oven along with the sweet potatoes). 3. Pour the orange liqueur over the bananas, scrape the brown bits off the bottom of the dish and mash the bananas well. 4. When potatoes are cool enough, peal and cut into chunks. Put in a miscuing bowl. Add bananas, spices, and brown sugar. 5. Mash or beat with mixer to desired consistency. 6. Serve in ramekins and garnish with cilantro.
