Ingredients
4 pounds fresh sweet potatoes
6 tablespoons room temperature unsalted butter
1/2 cup apple butter
Salt
Directions
Heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Stab the sweet potatoes all over with a fork piercing the skin. Put in a large baking sheet or jelly roll pan. Cook until very tender, for 1 1/2 hours.
Cool to the touch. Remove the peels from the sweet potatoes. Put into a large bowl. Smash with a potato masher until creamy and smooth. Add the butter and apple butter and continue smashing until mixed well.
Sprinkle salt and serve.
