Mashed Sweet Potatoes with Rosemary Butter
Author Notes: I'm always trying to find new ways to use sweet potatoes, because my boyfriend loves them. This was a success - the tanginess of the yogurt sort of brightened up the mash. - apartmentcooker
Serves 4-6
- 3 large sweet potatoes, cubed
- 6 cloves garlic
- 3-4 Tbsp olive oil
- salt and pepper, as needed
- 3/4 cups Greek Yogurt
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary
- Toss the potatoes and garlic with the oil, salt, and pepper. Spread into an even layer on a baking sheet and roast in a 375 degree oven until tender and caramelized, about 30-45 minutes.
- Transfer the potatoes and garlic to a large bowl, and use a handheld mixer to whip them with the Greek yogurt until smooth.
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan, and add the rosemary. Let the butter rest until it is set. Top the warm potatoes with the butter.

Great recipe! Doesn't even need the rosemary butter.

INSANELY great!
I needed a quick last minute recipe for a Sweet Potato side that wasn't a cassarole and didn't contain any extra added sugar. This recipe was such a delight and a crowd pleaser. The natural flavor of the potatoes/garlic/olive oil combined with the Greek Yogurt, alone was a gem. But the Rosemary butter added quite the finishing bite.
Thank you so much for this. Will definitely make it again.
