Not your average frosting recipe! Here’s a Healthy Vegan Almond Butter Frosting recipe that’s made with almond butter and cooked sweet potatoes. The almond butter provides a deep, nutty flavor while the sweet potatoes provide the sweetness and form the bulk of the frosting. It’s a softer, less buttery frosting recipe so it won’t have the same texture as traditional frosting–but it’s a perfect frosting alternative to add to if you’re following a low calorie or low carb diet. Enjoy!

Ingredients Used to Make This Vegan Almond Butter Frosting Recipe

**I’ve linked some of these ingredients to amazon.com to give you an idea of what they are, but you should also be able to find them in your local grocery store (usually, the natural & organic food section). They are also affiliate links, which means that I earn a commission as an Amazon Associate if you decide to purchase the items. The price will be the same for you, link or no link 🙂

  • Sweet Potato – You’ll need mashed sweet potatoes for this recipe. You can steam, bake or boil them until soft but here’s the easy method: Wash and wrap a whole sweet potato in a microwave-safe silicone bag (like this one) or in a plastic wrap, then microwave on high for 6-7 minutes (or more depending on the size of the potato). You can make sure it’s cooked by sticking a fork or toothpick into the center. Let them cool somewhat before handling and mash it with a fork.

  • Almond Butter – I used natural (drippy) almond butter, like this one. You can also use other natural nut butters like pecan butter, walnut butter, cashew butter, mixed nut butter, or even seed butter like sunflower. So many choices!
  • Cinnamon –  like this
  • Granulated Sugar of Choice – to keep this recipe low carb, I used granulated monk fruit sweetener. You can also use granulated cane sugar
