Vegan Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Brown Butter Sage Sauce Recipe

To prepare this delectable dish, first boil 2 large sweet potatoes until tender. Then, mash them and mix with 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Knead the mixture until it forms a smooth dough.

Combining the aromatic blend of vegan cheese, roasted pumpkin, warm cinnamon, inviting pumpkin spice, subtle black pepper, and savory salt in a single bowl creates a harmonious medley of flavors and textures that’s sure to delight the senses. Mix well.
Gently fold in half the flour into the mixture, using a spatula to tenderly combine the ingredients after a few gentle turns.
Knead the dump mixture onto a clean, lightly floured countertop, or continue working within the bowl if preferred. Lightly dust the surface with any leftover flour.
Smoothly incorporate the flour by gently kneading the mixture with your fingertips. Let’s get started! Don’t risk it – stop kneading once the dough feels smooth.
Sprinkle a sufficient amount of flour evenly over a clean and dry work area. Divide dough into 4 parts. Wrapped tightly in wax paper, take this single part and compactly coil it around itself, forming a uniform cylinder with a diameter of precisely one inch. Cut gnocchi into 1-inch pieces.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat by combining 1 tablespoon of vegan butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add 3-4 gnocchi in a single layer on the pan, leaving a small gap between each piece to allow for even cooking and texture.
Cook over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side. The gnocchi are removed and placed on a large baking sheet, where they’re kept warm in the oven.
Once you’ve completed cooking the gnocchi, remove any residual butter or oil from the pan and wipe it clean with a paper towel to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
With the pan heated to medium, introduce the remaining two tablespoons of vegan butter and the lone tablespoon of olive oil once it’s hot.
As the dish reaches a simmer, introduce the fragrant freshness of sage. Allow the richly aromatic browned onions to simmer gently for approximately two minutes, yielding an intoxicating aroma without scorching or burning. What a delightful herb!
Add the balsamic vinegar to the pan and whisk thoroughly. Allow the mixture to simmer gently at a low heat for approximately one minute, then carefully pour it over the cooked gnocchi.
Topped with rich, velvety vegan Parmesan cheese and a delicate scattering of crispy, fragrant sage leaves for added depth and visual appeal.
