Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Cooked and mashed Sweet potato I used the Hannah variety to make the pasta white but any variety will work
  • 1 Cup Flour or Gluten Free Baking Mix *More if needed
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Roast, microwave or boil a sweet potato then remove the skins.
  • Mash sweet potato up with a mixer and let it cool down.
  • Add mashed sweet potato to mixing bowl. Next add flour mixture. and combine with sweet potato.
  • Added 2 eggs and 1/2 tsp salt. Then mix together adding more flour if needed.
  • It should come together into a soft dough ball. This pasta dough is really soft and delicate but shouldn't be sticky. Add in more flour if it's sticky and knead the dough through to make sure the inside of your dough ball isn't sticky.
  • Now dump dough onto a floured surface and use a rolling pin to roll out dough. (This dough is too soft to be run through a pasta roller) Next take a cup, cookie cutter, ravioli cutter, pizza cutter or knife if your doing a flat wider pasta to cut pasta into desired shape. Bring water to a boil and cook pasta into water for 2-3 minutes.
