Ingredients
- 4 sweet potatoes of medium size, carefully peeled
- A cup of Grade A maple syrup
- ⅓ cup of brown sugar, tightly packed
- 1 ½ cups of fresh cranberries
- Butter (unsalted), quantity based on personal preference
- ½ tsp of dried thyme leaves
- 8 sprigs of fresh thyme
Step 1
Begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius) for a delightful cooking adventure.
Step 2
In a large pot, immerse whole sweet potatoes in salted water and bring it to a boil until they become tender after about 20 to 30 minutes. Once ready, drain the potatoes and let them cool down to enhance their flavors.
Step 3
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine maple syrup and brown sugar over heat until it reaches a boiling point. Lower the heat and let it simmer until the mixture reduces by half. Add cranberries into the pot and let them burst open in a symphony of flavors. Toss in butter and dried thyme to elevate the taste and take it off the heat.
Step 4
After the sweet potatoes have cooled, slice them into 1-inch rounds. Place them in an 8x12-inch glass baking dish, arranging them creatively like a charming fallen domino setup. Stir the syrup mix well and pour it over the sweet potatoes, ensuring the cranberries are evenly spread for a balanced taste.
Step 5
Let the dish bake in the preheated oven until the cranberries on top start to caramelize, usually around 40 minutes. Once done, take it out and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before serving. For a final touch, garnish each serving with a lovely sprig of thyme to add a hint of freshness.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Start by selecting the freshest sweet potatoes and cranberries possible for your recipe. This will ensure a more flavorful and vibrant dish.
- 2. Once you have prepared and baked your maple baked sweet potatoes and cranberries, allow them to cool completely before storing them.
