This Cauliflower Sweet Potato Gnocchi, as with all of my recipes, is vegan and gluten free. It is a simple, savory recipe that cooks up quickly and easily. I love it so much that I will sometimes make a double batch and freeze half of the gnocchi so I can throw a few in the air fryer frozen whenever I have a craving! You can try using the air fryer for the freshly prepared gnocchi too, just brush the gnocchi with melted Earth Balance instead of using a fry pan.
The rosemary and garlic add a nice flavor and make the house smell delicious. I have been using either Bob’s Red Mills gluten free flour or a new blend that I love is made by Flour Farm.

2 cups cauliflower (fresh or frozen works)
1 medium sweet potato
2 cups gluten free flour

How to Prepare Cauliflower Sweet Potato Gnocchi
Boil the cauliflower in water until tender
Cube and peel the sweet potato and cook in a pot of water until tender (Sometimes I peel the sweet potato after it is cooked. The skin can be easily pulled away from the flesh of the potato once it is cooked)

Remove the dough from the food processor and place it on a floured surface
