I love a sweet and savory combo. Sometimes I don't always want a savory potato and want to pair my vegetables with a sweet side. While this is a very simple recipe, this is the perfect side to any meal. Such as pairing it with broccolini or asparagus.

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

In a medium pot boil water on high heat
Place your chopped sweet potatoes in the boiling water for 20 minutes or until fork tender
Using a strainer drain the water and sweet potatoes
Place the sweet potatoes back into the pot
Using a potato masher or fork break down the sweet potatoes until you no longer have large chunks
If you do not like a chunky consistency you can use a food processor and add your sweet potatoes and whipping cream
Add in your heavy whipping cream and use a spoon to mix thoroughly
Then add in your brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and black ground pepper
Lastly, top with butter and parsley (optional)

Notes

I personally like a chunky consistency and didn't utilize a food processor for mine. I know textures make a huge difference for the enjoying experience. If you aren't sure about the amount of cinnamon I used. You can start with 1/2tsp and add more from there.
