Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by peeling and chopping your sweet potatoes into uniform pieces, about 1 to 2 inches in size. Place the chopped sweet potatoes in a large pot filled with cold, salted water, submerging them completely.
- Turn the heat to high and bring the pot to a rolling boil. Reduce the heat and let the sweet potatoes simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until fork-tender.
- Carefully drain the sweet potatoes in a colander, allowing excess water to escape. Return them to the pot and use a potato masher to mash until smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps remain.
- While the sweet potatoes are still warm, add in the unsalted butter and honey. Stir vigorously until both are fully melted and evenly incorporated into the sweet potato mash.
- Gradually pour in your choice of milk or heavy cream while stirring continuously until you reach the desired creamy consistency. Then sprinkle in salt and cinnamon.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning and sweetness as desired. This final touch ensures your Honey Butter Mashed Sweet Potatoes will be a crowd-pleaser.
