Discover the perfect side dish for your fall table with our Easy Mashed Sweet Potatoes recipe. We’ll show you how to achieve perfectly cooked sweet potatoes and create a delectable casserole with a twist. Let’s get started!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium Sweet Potatoes
  • 1 cup of water
  • 2 tablespoons of unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon

  4. Transfer the mashed sweet potatoes into a casserole dish.

  5. If using Maple toasted pecans, chop them up and sprinkle them over the top of the casserole for added flavor and crunch.

  6. Bake the casserole in the oven at 350°F for approximately 20 minutes, or until it’s perfectly warmed and slightly browned on top.
