Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup apple cider

  • 5 large sweet potatoes or yams, scrubbed but unpeeled

  • 1/4 cup vegan margarine

  • 2 Tbsp. light brown sugar

  • 1/2 tsp. salt

  • Lightly toasted, chopped pecans or thinly sliced pineapple rings, for garnish

Directions

  • Boil the cider in a small saucepan over high heat until reduced by half, about 7 minutes. Set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the sweet potatoes and cook until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Drain well.
  • Peel the hot sweet potatoes, using a kitchen towel to protect your hands. Return the potatoes to the warm pot, add the cider, margarine, brown sugar, and salt and mash until well blended.
  • Garnish and serve hot.
