Healthy Sweet Potato Pudding

I love to use the flavors of favorite desserts that are typically made with high amounts of added sugar and turn them into healthy treats and snacks for the whole family. This Healthy Sweet Potato Pudding is creamy and comforting, and is naturally sweet from the mashed roasted sweet potato. It reminds me of pie filling, but is also a great source of protein, calcium, and vitamin A.

TIP:This Sweet Potato Pudding works for dessert, of course, but it’s also a great snack or breakfast.

Ingredients in Healthy Sweet Potato Pudding

To make this simple and healthy dessert, all you need is Greek yogurt andmashed roasted sweet potatoes. I like to use vanilla Greek yogurt from Siggis, which has great flavor but not a ton of added sugar, but you can use a brand you like as well. If you’d rather use plain Greek yogurt, that’s fine too—just sweeten to taste with a little maple syrup.

TIP:Sweet potatoes are often really sweet, so you can get away without adding much (if any) added sweetener. And you can top it with a little sprinkle ofpumpkinpie spice orcinnamon.

Can I make this dairy-free?

You can swap in your favorite non-dairy yogurt, though a thicker Greek-style one will work better for the consistency.

You can store any leftovers (or simply make this ahead) in the fridge for 3-5 days in anairtight container. Stir together well before serving if any water separates, which could happen from either the sweet potato or the yogurt.

What’s the best sweet potato to use in this recipe?
