Tastes just like sweet potato pie! Serve with baked pita chips and apple or pear slices. Swap cinnamon for the ginger if you prefer.

Ingredients

Canned undrained chickpeas

1½ cup(s), loose skins removed, washed, drained

Cooked sweet potato

1 cup(s), mashed*

Packed light brown sugar

¼ cup(s)

Fresh orange juice

½ cup(s)

Orange zest

1 tsp(s), finely minced

Ginger root

1¼ tsp(s), fresh, finely minced

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender; blend until smooth. Allow to set up in refrigerator for about 30 minutes. Yields about 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons per serving.

Notes

*If you roast the sweet potato, you’ll bring out its natural sweetness. But you can steam, boil, or microwave the potato before you mash it, if you prefer.
