Ingredients

  • water to cover
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Directions

Step 1
Place sweet potatoes in the slow cooker and add water to cover.

Step 2
Cook on High until potatoes are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Step 3
Place potatoes in a colander until well drained, then return to the slow cooker. Add butter, milk, sage, salt, and pepper. Mash with a potato masher until potatoes are smooth/

Cook’s Notes:

For additional richness, feel free to sub half-and-half or heavy cream for the milk. Slow cooker temperatures vary, so check occasionally for doneness. I use the slow cook function on my Instant Pot(R), and they're done in about 1 hour 15 minutes.
