About

Super Sweet Potato Oatmeal has a name that really works on two levels. Firstly, it is quite the sweet side! The natural caramel-like flavor of the sweet potatoes is enhanced with the addition of floral honey, fragrant vanilla, rich butter, and warm spices. A little almond milk adds a touch of creaminess... mmm, it's hard to believe this isn't a dessert! But also, the name Super Sweet Potato Oatmeal describes just how delicious it tastes; super delicious, that is! This is a morning favorite you'll find yourself making throughout the year!
