Vegan Whipped Coconut Sweet Potatoes

These vegan whipped coconut sweet potatoes offer a silky, indulgent alternative to traditional mash. By oven-roasting the potatoes in their skins, the natural sugars caramelise to create a deeper flavour that pairs perfectly with the subtle fragrance of coconut milk and a hint of warm cinnamon. The result is a vibrant, light side dish that brings a touch of natural sweetness to your plate without the need for dairy or butter.

This plant-based recipe is an excellent addition to a festive spread or a healthy midweek roast. As sweet potatoes are rich in fibre and vitamins, this dish is as nourishing as it is delicious. Serve it alongside a savoury nut roast or grilled vegetables for a comforting, balanced meal that everyone can enjoy.
