Mashed Sweet Potatoes

Creamy Mashed Sweet Potatoes is the most loved and devoured side dish! The secret to this mash though is not an abundance of butter, but SOUR CREAM! Butter with a hint of sour cream makes the best sweet potato mash.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 4 pounds sweet potatoes
  • 4 teaspoons salt divided
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • cup unsalted butter
  • ¼ cup sour cream (reduced fat)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese fresh shredded, optional
  • ¼ cup milk if desired
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped, optional to garnish

Instructions

  1. Peel and cut sweet potatoes into 2-inch cubes.
  2. Place sweet potatoes in a large pot (6-quart) and cover with water by an inch. Season with 3 teaspoons salt and bring to a boil, reduce heat down to medium-low and allow to simmer until fork tender (about 15-20 minutes).
  3. Drain cooked potatoes, add in the butter, sour cream, garlic, remaining salt and parmesan.
  4. Mash with a potato masher until smooth, adding milk if desired for a smoother/lighter mash.
  5. Garnish with parsley, serve.

Notes

  • I recommend peeling your potatoes before mashing for the creamiest mash consistency.
