Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Boil them in a large pot of salted water for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Bourbon & Brown Sugar Mixture

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar, bourbon, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Cook until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine and Bake

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained sweet potatoes with the bourbon mixture. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined. Transfer to a baking dish.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, until heated through and slightly caramelized on top. Serve warm.
