Method
Preparation
Peel and Chop Sweet Potatoes
Start by peeling the sweet potatoes using a vegetable peeler. After peeling, chop them into evenly sized cubes, about 1 inch in size.
Boil Sweet Potatoes
Place the chopped sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the sweet potatoes and set aside.
Mixing Ingredients
Combine Sweet Potatoes with Sweeteners
In a large mixing bowl, add the drained sweet potatoes. Pour in the brown sugar and maple syrup, and mix well until the sweet potatoes are evenly coated.
Add Butter and Spices
Melt the butter in a microwave or small saucepan. Once melted, pour it over the sweet potato mixture. Then sprinkle in the cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Stir everything together until well combined.
Baking
Prepare Baking Dish
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with a little butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Bake Sweet Potatoes
Transfer the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is slightly caramelized and the sweet potatoes are heated through.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious brown sugar sweet potatoes as a side dish or dessert!
