Ingredients

  • 5 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  •  cups unsweetened almond milk, plus more if necessary
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¾ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup fresh sage leaves, for garnish

Crumble Topping

  •  cup whole rolled oats
  • ½ cup pecans, plus more for garnish
  • ½ cup walnuts, plus more for garnish
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon maple syrup

  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • ½ teaspoon minced fresh rosemary
  •  teaspoons sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil and brush an 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
  • Use a fork to poke a few holes into the sweet potatoes. Place on the baking sheet and roast until very tender, about 60 minutes.
  • Make the crumble topping: In a food processor, place the oats, pecans, walnuts, garlic, maple syrup, olive oil, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper and pulse until just combined. Remove and set aside.
  • Scoop the cooked sweet potato flesh out of the skins and place in a food processor. Add the olive oil, almond milk, ginger, salt, and pepper and process to combine. Spread the mixture into the baking dish.
  • Sprinkle with the crumble topping, additional nuts, and sage leaves. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 20 minutes, or until the topping is browned and crisp.
