Vegan Purple Sweet Potato Pie

 

 

 

 

 

If there is one approach I always take with recipes, it’s to create color! Working with veggies you can derive natural color in countless ways and purple sweet potatoes is one of them!

 

Purple sweet potatoes were actually created around 2006, and pack more nutrients than your typical standard white potato and also, more sweetness! In the past I’ve created a purple sweet potato soup, but depending on the way that you cook the potatoes they will lose the vibrancy of the purple color. For example if you boil and mash them the color will fade.

 

With the holidays almost here, I wanted to finally give this recipe a go. From a distance I thought the texture would perhaps be off, maybe the color wouldn’t be as bright, but I was completely wrong.

 

The texture mimics traditional pie, holds together, and has the perf naturally sweet flavor profile! 

 

 

 

What’s fab about this pie, is everything! It’s quick, easy, features minimal ingredients, and effortless crust,  has the perfect texture, the perfect hue, minimal sugar added, aesthetic appeal, perf for entertaining, and perf for the holidays!!

 

If you love fun festive holiday desserts, you’re going to love this vegan Purple Sweet Potato Pie!!
