Maple Mashed Sweet Potatoes
Ingredients
1 pound sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons maple syrup(I use sugar free)
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Place the sweet potatoes and carrots in a medium saucepan. Add 1-inch water, cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 9 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are very tender.
Drain in a colander and return to the saucepan. Mash until smooth. Stir in the maple syrup and nutmeg and pepper to taste
