Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Ingredients:
sweet potato, raw, unprepared
cheese, ricotta, whole milk
salt, table
spices, cinnamon, ground
spices, pepper, black
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
Pierce the sweet potato with a fork.
Bake the sweet potatoes until tender and fully cooked, between 40 to 55 minutes depending on size.
Cool slightly.
Cut in half and scoop the flesh into a large bowl.
Mash the sweet potatoes and transfer to a large measuring cup to make sure the sweet potatoes measure about 2 cups.
Transfer the mashed sweet potatoes back to the large bowl.
Add the ricotta cheese, salt, cinnamon, and pepper and blend until well mixed.
Add the flour, 1/2 cup at a time until a soft dough forms.
Lightly flour a work surface and place the dough in a ball on the work surface.
Divide the dough into 6 equal balls.
Roll out each ball into a 1-inch wide rope.
Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces.
Roll the gnocchi over the tines of a fork.
Transfer the formed gnocchi to a large baking sheet.
Continue with the remaining gnocchi.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
Add the gnocchi in 3 batches and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 5 to 6 minutes.
Drain the gnocchi using a slotted spoon onto a baking sheet.
Tent with foil to keep warm and continue with the remaining gnocchi.
