Share:
Ingredients
- 3 pounds sweet potatoes (about 6, round, not skinny)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup Creme Fraiche or cream cheese
- 6 tablespoons melted butter divided
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons bourbon
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg divided
- 1/4 cup Chopped hazelnuts or pecans, walnuts...
- 1/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Brush the sweet potatoes with oil and roast on a rimmed baking sheet until very tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. (You can nuke them in the microwave to speed the roasting time if needed.)
- Cool slightly. Cut each potato in half and place the flesh of the top halves in a bowl. It should be soft enough to just fall out of the skin. Gently scoop the flesh out of the bottom halves and add it to the bowl, leaving a little around the edges for stability.
- Add the crème fraiche, 4 tablespoons butter, maple syrup, bourbon, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 3/4 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste, to the sweet potatoes in the bowl. Using a hand mixer (or immersion blender), puree until smooth.
- Scoop the potato puree back into the bottom halves of the potatoes. Mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg with the panko bread crumbs and chopped nuts. Salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle the mixture over the tops of the sweet potatoes.
- Bake another 15-20 minutes until warmed through and golden on top. *These can be made 2-3 days in advance. If coming out of the fridge, bake 30-40 minutes—until warmed through or cheat and rewarm in the microwave.
Notes
- Store any leftover sweet potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Then reheat them in the oven, air fryer, toaster oven or microwave until heated through!
