Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups chopped sweet potato
  • 1/2 cup ricotta cheese
  • 3/4-1 cup all purpose four GF works too!
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp salted butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh sage

Instructions
 

  • Boil the potatoes until fork tender. Drain and let cool for 5-10 minutes.
  • Mash the sweet potatoes well, add in the ricotta cheese, pepper and salt.
  • Stir in the flour 1/4 cup at a time. The dough should come together but not be dry. Mix until just combined.
  • Take about a 1/2 cup of dough and roll into a log 1" thick. Cut the gnocchi into uniform sized pieces about 1.5" long. Continue until all the gnocchi is made.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and cook for 2-4 minutes. The gnocchi will float when they're done.
  • In a large frying pan, melt the butter and add the sage. Add the gnocchi and don't flip until they get a crispy edge. Once the gnocchi is flipped, add in the garlic and cook until fragrant.
  • Serve the gnocchi with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese!
