Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized Sweet potatoes
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 1 stick Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 1.5 cups Water
- as needed Cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a medium-sized pot, combine the sweet potato slices, 1 cup of granulated sugar, brown sugar, water, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are just tender. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and the remaining 0.5 cups of granulated sugar. Add the milk and stir until the batter is smooth and fully combined.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Using a slotted spoon, evenly distribute the sweet potato slices over the batter. Carefully pour the syrup from the pot over the top, ensuring the batter and potatoes are covered with the liquid.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the cobbler is golden brown and bubbling.
Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
