Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.
Step 3
Bake sweet potatoes in the preheated oven until soft to the touch, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool, 15 to 30 minutes.
Step 4
Remove and discard skins from cooled potatoes. Mash flesh in a large bowl or press through a ricer. Blend in egg, garlic, salt, and nutmeg. Mix in flour, a little at a time, until a soft dough forms.
Step 5
While the water is coming to a boil, make the gnocchi: Roll dough on a floured surface into several long, snake-like logs. Cut logs into 1-inch pieces.
Step 6
Drop dough pieces into boiling water and cook until they float to the surface. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a serving dish and keep warm until ready to serve.
