Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Sweet potatoes
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 0.5 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 2 inches thick.
Place the sweet potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and easy to pierce with a fork.
Drain the sweet potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot.
Add the unsalted butter to the sweet potatoes and mash them using a potato masher or hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the heavy cream, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir well to fully incorporate the ingredients.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed, adding more salt or maple syrup for sweetness if desired.
Serve the mashed sweet potatoes warm, garnished with a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired.
