- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup milk whole milk or any milk of your choice
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar adjust to taste
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg adjust to taste
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Wash and peel the sweet potatoes.
- Cut them into evenly sized chunks or cubes. This ensures they cook evenly.
- Place the sweet potato chunks in a large pot and cover them with cold water.
- Add a pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and let the sweet potatoes simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. You should be able to easily pierce them with a fork.
- Drain the cooked sweet potatoes in a colander.
- Transfer them to a mixing bowl or the pot you cooked them in.
- Add the unsalted butter to the hot sweet potatoes. The heat will help melt the butter.
- Use a potato masher, a fork, or an electric hand mixer to mash the sweet potatoes until they are smooth and free of lumps. If you prefer a chunkier texture, mash them to your desired consistency.
- Gradually add the milk while continuing to mash the sweet potatoes. You can adjust the amount of milk to achieve your preferred level of creaminess.
- Stir in the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Taste and adjust the sweetness and spices to your liking.
- Transfer the mashed sweet potatoes to a serving dish.
- Optionally, you can add a small pat of butter on top for extra richness.
- Serve hot as a delightful side dish for your meal.
