Easy Sweet Potato Casserole | Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free

November 4, 2020 Comments : 2

Jump to recipe

Growing up, my mom always had a few signature dishes for the holidays – one of those being her sweet potato casserole. We would have it at Thanksgiving and sometimes at Christmas, too! When we moved away to Memphis in 2016, we hosted Thanksgiving at our house for the first time, which meant that I️ was in charge of the cooking. I️ requested my mom’s sweet potato casserole recipe, because you just can’t have Thanksgiving without it.

The Best Sweet Potato Casserole | Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free Options

Over the past 4 years, I️ have gone entirely dairy-free and gluten-free, so I️’ve had to modify all of my favorite recipes to accommodate my lifestyle. It’s been surprisingly easier than I️ expected, now that there are so many high-quality substitutes! I️ have experimented with my mom’s sweet potato casserole several times now, and I️ wanted to share my gluten- and dairy-free version with you (I️’ll also share the original!).

This recipe is also my husband’s favorite dish, so I️ typically double the recipe whenever I️ make it. I️ also think it gets better the day after you make it for some reason – so leftovers are encouraged!

I️ can honestly say the gluten- and dairy-free version of this recipe is just as good as the original, so if you are worried about the substitution, don’t be! I️ prefer to get fresh sweet potatoes and boil or bake them until soft, but if you’re in a pinch, you can also use canned sweet potatoes.

Also, I️ save a few steps and (dishes) by popping the cooked sweet potatoes into my KitchenAid mixing bowl and pureeing them with the mixer, then adding all of the other ingredients directly to that bowl! Check out a few of my other favorite Thanksgiving recipes in this post.

    I can always count on you to take a ridiculously unhealthy recipe and make it semi-healthier 🤣 This sounds absolutely delicious!

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️

@prolonfmd Day One | The struggle is real 😅 I’ve done cleanses in the past so I’m no stranger to this…but coming off a few weeks of holiday drinks and some indulgences, today was no easy feat 🤣 My energy definitely ebbed and flowed throughout the day, and felt weak and nauseated every now and then from lack of calories and protein 🙈 It was the longest day ever, but I cleaned, vacuumed, mopped and then did a @onepeloton walk & yoga class and still had time left over (side note, why doesn’t every day feel this long?! 😆). Actually feeling good this evening after having a sparkling water ‘mocktail’, energized and clear-minded 👌🏼

2022 — what a year ✨ It challenged me in so ma 2022 — what a year ✨ It challenged me in so many ways, but I also thrived in many ways. Continuing to grow a business with a husband, three kids, a dog and two cats is not a simple feat but here we are 😏 We adventured a LOT this year - from Girl Scout adventures to family vacations to HHI, the mountains, OBX and more, we had plenty of fun and made lots of memories 😘 The best part of this year was just really allowing myself to live in the moment and not allow stress to overtake me as I’ve allowed it in the past 😅 I also rediscovered my love of running thanks to my @onepeloton Tread and hit big goals at @purebarre_highlandcreek 💪🏼 Here’s to living more in the present, accomplishing bigger goals and dreams and having an amazing 2023 🥂
