Servings 6
Equipment
- Large pot
- Hand Mixer, Stand Mixer, or Hand Masher
Ingredients
- 3 large sweet potatoes peeled & cut into 2-inch pieces
- ¼-½ cup of whole milk
- 3 tbsp butter
- Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper to taste

Instructions
- Put the peeled and chopped sweet potatoes in a large pot of well-salted cold water. Bring to a light boil and cook until tender, about 15 minutes.
- Place milk, butter, sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper in a glass bowl and microwave for 30-45 seconds, or until warmed and the butter has melted.
- Drain and return potatoes to the pot. Return the pot to the stove over low heat for a minute or two to dry up any excess water from the potatoes. Remove from the stove.
