\n\t\tRoasting sweet potatoes is even easier than boiling and mashing them. Maple syrup glaze transforms this ultra-simple dish into something sublime.\t<\/p>\n
- \n
- 2 1\/2 pounds sweet potatoes (peeled and cut into 1 1\/2-inch pieces (about 8 cups))<\/li>\n
- 1\/3 cup pure maple syrup<\/li>\n
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 cup pineapple<\/li>\n
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice<\/li>\n
- 1\/2 teaspoon salt<\/li>\n
- Freshly ground pepper (to taste)<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n
- \n
- Preheat oven to 400\u00b0F.<\/li>\n
- Arrange sweet potatoes in an even layer in a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. Combine maple syrup, butter, lemon juice, salt and pepper in small bowl. Pour the mixture over the sweet potatoes; toss to coat.<\/li>\n
- Cover and bake the sweet potatoes for 15 minutes. Uncover, stir and cook, stirring every 15 minutes, until tender and starting to brown, 45 to 50 minutes more.<\/li>\n
- Place all cooked ingredients, with the uncooked pineapple, into a food processor and blend until smooth.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
