A delightful twist on mashed potatoes, combining sweet and savory flavors with a hint of spice.
Peel and cube the sweet potatoes.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized pieces to ensure they cook at the same rate.
Boil the sweet potatoes in a pot of water until tender, about 15 minutes.
Check the doneness by piercing a piece with a fork; it should slide in easily.
Drain the cooked sweet potatoes and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Let the potatoes sit for a minute to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
Mash the sweet potatoes with a masher until smooth.
For a smoother texture, you can use a hand mixer or food processor.
Mix in the butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar until well combined.
Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Serve warm as a side dish.
Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a pat of butter for presentation.
