Easy Maple Mashed Sweet Potatoes image

The addition of maple syrup makes these pleasently different. This dish was always popular when I catered holiday dinners. I put a small amount of syrup here but you may certainly add more if you like. I have also cut it down as I doubt that very many folks will be having 100 at their table *wink*. Prep time is actually the mixing time after the potatoes have been baked. Also this can be made the day before and gently reheated (covered) before serving. **EDIT** After several reviewers commenting that the maple flavor is faint I have upped the maple syrup content on Jan 18 "07, please feel free to add more after tasting it if you would like to.

Not bad, but not the best mashed sweet potatoes I've ever had.

These mashed sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would use less maple syrup next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and my mashed sweet potatoes turned out perfectly. They were fluffy and creamy, with a hint of maple flavor. I served them with roasted turkey and cranberry sauce and they were a hit!

I made these mashed sweet potatoes for my family last night and they were a big success! Everyone loved them, even my husband who is not a big fan of sweet potatoes. The maple syrup gave them a really nice flavor.

These mashed sweet potatoes were a hit at my Thanksgiving dinner! They were creamy and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness from the maple syrup. Even my picky kids loved them.
