Duchess Sweet Potatoes Recipe

Duchess potatoes make an elegant side dish perfect for entertaining. These duchess sweet potatoes will quickly become a favorite. 

You know that flavor of sweet potato casserole? Well, these duchesse sweet potatoes immediately make you think of them with the first bite! Perfect for serving as a side dish with any meal, this elegant sweet potato recipe is healthy to boot!

Made with pureed sweet potatoes, maple syrup, salt, pepper and butter, these sweet potatoes are a definite favorite!

I recommend using a food mill or potato ricer to puree your cooked sweet potatoes for this dish as it yields a lighter, fluffier potato and makes them not so dense or retain as much moisture, which is perfect for this dish!

If you do not have a food mill or a potato ricer, you should be fine using an electric mixer or potato masher, you’ll just find that the texture will be different. Which, in my opinion, is totally fine! But, if you have one, by all means this is the dish to use it on!

Here’s my Duchess Sweet Potatoes recipe. I think you’ll love them!
