For a richer flavor, roast the garlic along with the sweet potatoes. Simply wrap the garlic clove in foil with a drizzle of olive oil and bake alongside the potatoes. Be careful not to overwork the dough, as this can result in tough gnocchi. Mix until just combined. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it is easier to handle. Gnocchi can be made ahead of time and frozen. Spread the uncooked gnocchi on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze. Once frozen, transfer to a freezer bag. Cook directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time. Experiment with different sauces and toppings! Brown butter and sage, pesto, or a simple tomato sauce all work beautifully.
