Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 sweet potatoes, scrubbed
3 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 ½ teaspoons pepper
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ cups raw cashews
1 ¾ cups low sodium vegetable broth, plus more for soaking cashews
3 cloves garlic
½ cup unsweetened coconut milk
⅓ cup nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon kosher salt
oil, for greasing

Steps:

  • Add the cashews to a medium bowl with enough vegetable broth to cover. Soak for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Drain and rinse.
  • Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • Using a mandolin or a sharp knife, thinly slice the sweet potatoes into rounds.
  • Add the sweet potatoes to a large bowl and toss with the olive oil, garlic, thyme leaves, pepper, and salt.
  • Add the drained cashews to a blender or food processor, along with the garlic, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, vegetable broth, nutmeg, cayenne, and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Grease a large cast-iron skillet or other ovenproof dish with oil.
  • Pour ⅓ of the cashew sauce into the skillet and tilt to evenly coat the bottom. Layer half of the sweet potato rounds over the sauce, overlapping slightly to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Repeat with another ⅓ of the sauce, the rest of the potatoes, and the rest of the sauce.
  • Bake for 1 hour, or until golden brown on top and the sweet potatoes are tender.
  • Let cool for 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
  • Enjoy!

I followed the recipe to a T, but my dish turned out a bit too salty for my taste. I think I might have added a bit too much salt when seasoning the breadcrumb mixture. Next time, I'll be sure to taste the mixture before adding it to the casserole. O
