Ingredients

Sweet Potatoes

  • 3 pounds sweet potatoes

  • 1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 6 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon allspice

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast sweet potatoes until fork-tender, about 1 hour. Cool slightly.

  • Peel cooled sweet potatoes and mash with coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla, spices, salt, and most of the brown butter.
  • Adjust creaminess with additional coconut milk if needed. Top with reserved brown butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
