Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 Large Sweet Potatoes peeled and cubed (about 3 ½ pounds)
  • ¼ Cup Maple Syrup
  • ¼ Cup Nut Butter
  • 2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 1 Teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ Teaspoon Cinnamon
  • ⅛ Teaspoon Nutmeg

Topping

  • 1 Cup Finely Chopped Pecans
  • 3 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
  • ½ Teaspoon Kosher Salt

Instructions

  • Steam the sweet potato until fork-tender. Let cool slightly.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl and mash thoroughly.
  • Stir in the maple syrup, nut butter, vanilla, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Spread the potato mixture into a casserole dish (I used this dish). Sprinkle the chopped pecans in an even layer onto the sweet potatoes. Drizzle evenly with maple syrup, then sprinkle with the salt.
