This is a side dish diabetics could use occasionally with a lean protein item such as turkey, chicken, etc. One serving only is recommended.
3 cups cubed and peeled sweet potatoes
4 tbsp warmed fat-free milk
2 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup*
2 tsp butter, softened
salt to taste
dash of ground nutmeg
freshly ground black pepper to taste
Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover completely with water. Cover pan and bring to a boil; reduce heat and cook on low for 15 minutes or so until potatoes are tender. Drain well.
Return potatoes to the pan and add the milk, syrup, butter, and spices. Using a potato masher, smash the potatoes. Add more milk and syrup, if needed.
