Mashed Sweet Potatoes Brulee
Sweet potatoes are a must for Thanksgiving and this dish will be a hit on your Holiday table. It’s easy to assemble a day ahead so it’s ready to pop in the oven on Thanksgiving day. Serve it alongside your turkey, Chicken Sausage and Herb Stuffing and Cranberry Pear Sauce, a must!
With Thanksgiving around the corner, I’ve been testing so many Thanksgiving recipes from side dishes to leftovers these past few weeks. This is one we made a few years back that we all loved! It’s the dish that finally turned me into a sweet potato fan and is always on my holiday table. Previously I only enjoyed them as sweet potato fries, or in a sweet potato pie, but now I love them so many ways.
Variations and Tips
To make it dairy free swap the butter and milk out for vegan butter or coconut oil and nut milk. If your dish can’t go under the broiler, a brulee torch can be used to caramelize the sugar instead.
Make Ahead Tips
To prepare ahead, make the mashed sweet potatoes the day before, then re-heat them before topping with sugar and broiling. Once you broil them, you’ll want to serve them right away. If you are bringing them to someone’s house, don’t add the brown sugar topping until you are ready to serve.
