1. The Best Sweet Potato Casserole<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

Edna Lewis & Scott Peacock’s sweet potato casserole swaps marshmallows for sugar-crusted pecans, and it\u2019s all the better for it. The base layer is equally delicious, featuring whipped, buttery sweet potatoes and a touch of cinnamon, nutmeg, and honey.<\/p>\n

2. Baked Sweet Potatoes with Maple Cr\u00e8me Fra\u00eeche<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

It couldn\u2019t be easier: Roast sweet potatoes at a high heat until they\u2019re almost caramelized, then toss them in a tangy maple cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche dressing that perfectly balances the sweetness. For garnish, there are plenty of options between chile flakes, lime zest, roasted peanuts, and scallions.<\/p>\n

3. Mashed Maple Chipotle Sweet Potatoes<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

While you might not usually think to pair chile with potatoes for Thanksgiving, trust us: it works. These mashed sweet potatoes strike the perfect balance of smoky chipotle and sweet maple for a dish that\u2019s both comforting and full of unexpected flavor.<\/p>\n

4. Goguma Mattang (Candied Sweet Potatoes)<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

Not as sweet as caramel apples, but just as amazing. These golden bites are crispy, candied perfection, coated in a glossy sugar syrup that adds just the right amount of sweetness. While they have a dessert-like flavor, they\u2019re still a great side for dinner and a nice contrast to other savory dishes.<\/p>\n

5. Sweet Potato Bake<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

This sweet potato bake is simple but full of flavor, thanks to brown sugar and warm spices. Most of the prep time is spent waiting for the sweet potatoes to boil until tender, leaving you free time to tackle other dishes or set the table.<\/p>\n

6. Orange Cardamom Roasted Sweet Potatoes<\/a>
\n<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re looking for something a bit more elevated, but still traditional enough that everyone will eat , these sweet potatoes are a great choice. The addition of orange and cardamom gives them a sophisticated touch, making them a great match for the other fall flavors on your table.<\/p>\n
