Ingredients
- ½ ½ cup strong brewed coffee see notes
- ¼ ¼ cup EACH: maple syrup, bourbon, and coconut or brown sugar
- ½ ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ ¼ teaspoon cayenne
- 2 2 tablespoons butter dairy free butter if needed
- 1 ¼ 1 ¼ lb sweet potato ribbons
The Pecan Topping
- ¼ ¼ cup butter softened
- 1 ½ 1 ½ cups pecans coarsely chopped
- ½ ½ cup almond flour
- 1 1 teaspoon EACH: cinnamon, sage, and vanilla
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9x11 inch baking dish. Add the coffee, maple syrup, bourbon, coconut sugar, cayenne, and sea salt to a small pot over high heat. Bring it to a boil and continue to boil it rapidly until it reduces to about a ½ cup, about 10 minutes. Stir in the butter.
- While the syrup is boiling, prepare the topping. Add all the topping ingredients to a medium-sized bowl and mix together well. Using your hands is the easiest for this job.
- Place the sweet potato ribbons in a large bowl. When the syrup has reduced to a ½ cup, let it cool slightly then pour it over the ribbons. Toss gently to coat well.
- Place the sweet potato ribbons in the greased casserole dish and cover the top with the pecan topping. Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the ribbons are soft and the pecans have toasted.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Save a cup of coffee from your morning pot to save you having to make one.
- If the presentation is important to you, take a few of the sweet potato ribbons and wind them around the pecan topping. It's pretty!
- Culinary Cuts makes great sweet potato ribbons. Use two 10-ounce bags for this recipe.
