What will you need?

Sweet Potatoes

4 medium sweet potatoes
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 scoops of Anti-Inflammatory Turmeric Latte
1 teaspoon One Farm cinnamon
1/4 cup whole milk
4 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Sweet ‘n’ Savory Bacon Pecans

4 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups raw pecans roughly chopped
6 tablespoons salted butter melted
1/2-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper using more or less to taste
2 tablespoons fresh chopped sage
1-2 teaspoons fresh chopped rosemary (optional)

Filling & Dough

Step 1:

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Poke a few holes in the sweet potatoes and bake for 1 hour or until soft and tender. When the sweet potatoes are cooked, slice them in half and allow to cool.

Step 2:

Meanwhile, make the bacon pecans. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon from the pan and drain onto a paper towel. In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, pecans, butter, cayenne, sage, and rosemary (if using). Stir in the bacon.

Step 3:

Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Peel the skins away from the flesh of the sweet potato. Add the sweet potatoes to a mixing bowl. Mash well. Mix in the brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, milk, butter, eggs, and bourbon until combined. Season with salt.

Our Turmeric

The scope of benefits we can derive from a regular intake of turmeric is largely dependent on the quality of the product itself.

We’ve sourced all of our turmeric from Grenera Organics, where the plant is grown and harvested under ideal conditions, within their 300 acres of farmland.

Not only does this ensure that our products feature turmeric that has been planted, cultivated and harvested according to organic practices, but it also means that the beneficial aspects of the rhizomes are all the more potent. More specifically, Grenera Organics’ turmeric powder comprises between 4-7% curcumin – a high concentration for the turmeric rhizome, which often comprises around 3% curcumin.

We’ve developed a guide on the many uses and benefits of Turmeric to further explain why we use the best Turmeric in our natural remedies like our Golden Milk Latte and Turmeric Relief Cream
