Sweet Potato Pie

Because why not?

Ingredients:

• 10 oz 1% milk
• 2 scoops vanilla Metabolic Drive
• 1/3 or 1/2 cup precooked sweet potato
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Directions:

  1. Bake a sweet potato (around 400 degrees F for 50-60 mins). Cool, then scoop out one-third to one-half cup of the insides.

  2. Add milk, protein powder, sweet potato, cinnamon, and nutmeg to a bowl. Hit it with the immersion blender or just use a regular blender. Pour into pint and freeze overnight. OPTION: Add the mushy sweet potato as the mix-in.

  3. Spin it on the Lite setting. Re-spin with a spoonful of milk for a soft-serve texture. (I didn’t do that for the batch in the photo.)

Note: Lots of options

• I’ve used 1/3 and 1/2 cup sweet potato mush. Both work.

• I’ve also added the sweet potato into the base (pre-freezing) and as a mix-in. Both work.

• I’ve used a whisk, a blender, and an immersion blender. All work. The immersion does froth up the base, though, so you may want to let that settle before freezing.

• Play around with the cinnamon and nutmeg amounts. I’ve doubled the amount in the recipe above, but it was a potent punch to the palate! (Still ate it.)
