Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Sweet Potato Gnocchi
- Cook the sweet potatoes until they are tender—microwave for about 8-9 minutes or roast at 425°F for 45-60 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- Mash the cooled sweet potato flesh until smooth. Mix in one beaten egg and add flour and Parmesan, stirring until just combined.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 20 minutes.
- Dust a work surface with flour, divide and roll the dough into strips, then cut into 1-inch pieces, creating grooves with a fork or gnocchi board.
- Drop the gnocchi into boiling salted water. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until they float.
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the gnocchi and sauté until golden and crispy, around 3-5 minutes.
- Plate the gnocchi, garnish with Parmesan, and serve hot.

Notes
Ensure sweet potatoes are thoroughly cooked for a light texture. Avoid overmixing the dough to prevent tough gnocchi.
