Notes

The cooking time for sweet potatoes depends on their size. They are done when a fork easily slides through the center. Once prepared, these bowls store in the fridge for 5 days in an airtight container. Reheat on the stove or in the microwave. For a nut-free version, use soy milk and sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter.
