Ingredients
- 3 lbs sweet potatoes peeled and cubed
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup cream or more
- 1 cup Greek yogurt or sour cream
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a large saucepan or Dutch oven and add enough water to cover by about 1 inch.
- Add salt and bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Drain well the water, leaving only the potatoes in the pot over medium-low heat. Mash the sweet potatoes to your desired consistency using a potato masher or fork.
- Add melted butter, cream, maple syrup, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Stir to combine. Add Greek yogurt and stir to combine. If needed, add more cream.
- Use a hand mixer to whisk the potatoes for about 1 minute to make them fluffier.
- Serve, topped with cubed butter and parsley.
