Author Notes
For about 2/3 of my life, I thought that I didn’t like sweet potatoes. Why were they so sweet? And why used to be that sweetness true there on my plate, mixing with the challenging Thanksgiving chocolates I loved out of the ordinary more? It grew to became out that essentially the most easy cases I had ever even tried sweet potatoes were in casseroles that consistently incorporated globs of brown sugar and those unsuitable small mini-marshmallows. Again, I reiterate: Why were marshmellows on my plate subsequent to my turkey and gravy?
I’m so delighted that my mother-in-laws would now not retain marshmallows spherical. Potentially the most indispensable Thanksgiving I shared collectively with her, she merely roasted about a sweet potatoes. No marshmallows. Thanks to her, I stumbled on that sweet potatoes deserved a 2nd likelihood. The vegetable itself is most continuously luscious…it’s what some of us enact to it that I don’t like.
So, sweet potatoes: I’m sorry. Right here, I’ve made some griddled truffles with shredded sweet potatoes blended with true a smidge of maple syrup and some spices for a suited balance of moving and sweet. And, because Greek yogurt goes with challenging out of the ordinary all the pieces, I flavored it up with some curry powder for dipping. Any leftover potato truffles are enormous for breakfast or brunch the next day! —foxeslovelemons

With the drawing shut holidays of Thanksgiving and Hanukkah (or Thanksgivukkah to those celebrating both), those on the hunt for another option to candied yams or extinct potato latkes need peep no extra. These sweet potato truffles are flavorful with out being overly sweet, and the Greek yogurt topping flavored with curry makes a prosperous and moving counterpoint. Made with a contact of maple syrup, these truffles can scorch if you’re no longer taking a peep, so peep alive. To cook the truffles evenly and retain a golden brown color, we suggested making 10 to 12 a small thinner truffles and cooking over medium warmth. —Lisa
