Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 lbs sweet potatoes
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 5 tablespoons butter (melted)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon chopped parsley (optional)
  • pats of butter (optional)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Scrub the sweet potatoes and prick them with a fork.
  • Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray and arrange the sweet potatoes on the pan.
  • Bake for 1 hour or until potatoes are tender. Let cool slightly then peel off the skins, or cut the potatoes in half and scoop out the insides.
  • Place the potato, milk, butter and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Process until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a coarser texture, you can mash your potatoes by hand with a masher or fork.
  • See post text for different flavor variation options.
  • Serve, topped with pats of butter and/or parsley if desired.
