Step-by-Step Instructions for Flourless Sweet Potato Ginger Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch round cake pan.
- Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into cubes, then boil them until fork-tender for about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, almond butter, maple syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Add freshly grated ginger, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves, and salt. Stir until well incorporated.
- Gently fold in the baking soda without overmixing.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Watch carefully to prevent overbaking.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then run a knife around the edges and invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- Serve plain or with toppings like whipped cream, powdered sugar, or fresh berries.

Notes
Ensure sweet potatoes are fully mashed for a smooth batter. Allow the cake to sit overnight for enhanced flavors.
