Ingredients
- 3-4 pounds sweet potatoes peeled and sliced into 1” rounds or chunks
- ⅓ cup butter cut into 4 pieces
- ⅓ cup heavy cream or milk
- salt & pepper to taste
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon optional
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add sweet potatoes and boil until tender, about 10 - 15 minutes.
- Drain well and allow to sit in the colander a few minutes to make sure all water evaporates.
- Return sweet potatoes to the pot or a large bowl, and add butter to the potatoes and mash with a hand masher. Add cream or milk a little bit at a time to reach desired consistency.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot and top with a dash of cinnamon if desired.
Notes
- Cut the sweet potatoes into similar sized cubes so that they cook evenly.
- The potatoes should be fork tender when removed from the water.
- Don't be tempted to blend the potatoes or they will become soupy, use a hand masher.
