Mashed Sweet Potatoes Brulée Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Butter 10-inch quiche dish.* In medium bowl, mix mashed sweet potato, 1/4 cup brown sugar and the lemon juice. Spoon mixture into quiche dish.
• In 2-quart saucepan, stir together whipping cream, granulated sugar, egg yolks and vanilla. Cook over medium-low heat about 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until hot (do not boil). Pour over sweet potato mixture. Place dish in shallow pan. Place pan in oven. Pour enough boiling water into pan to depth of 3/4 inch (about halfway up side of dish).
• Bake 1 hour or until knife inserted in center comes out almost clean. Carefully remove dish from water. Cool on cooling rack. Cover; refrigerate at least 8 hours.
• Set oven control to broil. Sprinkle custard with 1/3 cup brown sugar; place dish in 15x10x1-inch pan. Broil with top 4 to 6 inches from heat 3 to 5 minutes or until sugar is melted. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Prick each sweet potato 7 or 8 times with a fork, then place the potatoes on a nonstick baking sheet.
• Bake until very tender at the center and the skins are starting to wrinkle, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven and split the potatoes down the center to open.
• Whisk together the cinnamon, vanilla extract and 2 teaspoons water. Brush the centers of the potatoes with the liquid. Cool completely in the refrigerator, about 2 hours.
• When ready to serve, open the potatoes like a book and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon coconut sugar. Using a kitchen torch, brulee the sugar until it melts and turns an even darker, almost black color. Allow to cool for 2 to 3 minutes, so the sugar firms up and becomes a tasty little crackle. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Spoon potato mixture into an 11x7 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle 1/2 cup brown sugar evenly over the top. Broil 2 minutes or until sugar melts. Let stand until melted sugar hardens (about 5 minutes).

Steps:

• Set a steamer basket in a large saucepan. Fill with enough water to come just below basket; bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Place sweet potatoes in steamer basket and cover; steam until tender, 15 to 25 minutes. Drain, and return to saucepan.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring half-and-half, butter, and brown sugar to a simmer, stirring to combine; remove from heat. Add to drained sweet potatoes, and mash just until smooth; season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes and cook until tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
• With an electric mixer on low, blend potatoes, slowly adding milk, about 1/2 a cup at a time. Use more or less to achieve desired texture. Add butter and maple syrup to taste. Blend until smooth. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Then cook sweet potatoes by boiling until soft. When the potatoes are cooked and soft, combine them with milk, light butter, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg and mash or puree until smooth. Spoon into a 9 x 9 or 11 x 7-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 1/2 cup brown sugar evenly over top. Broil 2 minutes or until sugar melts, careful not to burn. Let it stand until the melted sugar hardens (about 5 minutes).
