Old Fashioned Grated Sweet Potato Pudding

Updated: Nov 1, 2023


An old fashioned grated sweet potato pudding is a labor of love. This dish was one that my mother would make only once a year. The hardest part is grating the sweet potatoes which my mother always did by hand. You can certainly a food processor but it is key to grate the sweet potatoes really fine. You don’t want to boil or bake the sweet potatoes because it changes the texture of the dish. If you have the time, this dish is certainly one that you should have on your holiday dessert table. I enjoy it as a dessert but you can also make it as a side dish.

There’s something special about an old fashioned grated sweet potato pudding that just feels like home. The texture and natural sweetness make it such a comforting dessert, especially during cooler months. I was reading this while planning a weekend trip with Glacier Bike Shuttle, and now I’m craving a warm slice straight from the oven. The blend of spices and simple ingredients keeps it timeless. Recipes like this deserve to be passed down and shared.
