Cuisine: Gluten-Free, Vegetarian
Ingredients
  • 2 Tablespoons browned butter
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced ⅛-1/4" thick (food processor does a great job!)
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2-1/2 Tablespoons chipotle puree (adjust to your personal taste)
  • salt and pepper
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. Heat butter in a large frying pan over medium high heat, swirling occasionally and keeping an eye on the color. Once the foam changes to a toasty brown and the aroma becomes nutty the butter is browned and you can add the sweet potato slices. Sauté briefly just to brown edges. This may need to be down in batches.
  3. Stack sweet potato slices in large casserole dish.
  4. Whisk chipotle puree into the heavy whipping cream.
  5. Season the cream mixture with salt and pepper and put evenly over the sweet potatoes.
  6. Press sweet potatoes down so that the cream rises to the surface and coats all of the potatoes.
  7. Bake covered for 30 minutes then uncovered for another 45 minutes to an hour until the potatoes have absorbed the cream and the top is golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Look at all that brown butter goodness;)
ENJOY!!
