How to Make Whipped Maple Sweet Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Wash and pierce 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1.5 lbs total) several times with a fork.
  3. Place sweet potatoes in a 9x9x2 inch baking pan.
  4. Cover the pan tightly with foil and bake for 60-75 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
  5. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, carefully slip off the skins.
  6. Add the cooked sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat until completely smooth and lump-free.
  7. Add 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup, 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  8. Continue beating on medium speed until the sweet potatoes are light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
  9. Drizzle with an additional 1 tablespoon of maple syrup (optional).
  10. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped toasted pecans before serving.
