Sweet Potato Puree With Maple Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Pierce the sweet potatoes several times with a fork and place on a foil-lined baking sheet. Bake until softened, 1-1/2 hours, depending on size; let cool.
• Slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise. Scoop the flesh into a saucepan and discard the skins. Add the maple syrup (to taste), butter and sour cream. Using a wooden spoon or potato masher, mix until smooth. Season with the salt and nutmeg.
• Place over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place sweet potatoes, 1/4 cup of the maple syrup, 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Toss to evenly coat and place on sheet tray. Roast in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until sweet potatoes are soft. Be sure to check on them after 15 minutes and stir, if needed.
• Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter and add remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the sliced onion, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Saute until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the pan becomes dry.
• Transfer sweet potato mixture to a food processor, (may need to be done in batches) and add about a tablespoon of hot water. Pulse until just blended and then add half the caramelized onions. Pulse just a few times until desired consistency, adding more hot water for a smoother puree. Fold in remaining caramelized onions, reserving some for garnish.
• Serve in a warm dish and garnish with the reserved caramelized onions. YUMMY!!!

Steps:
