I haven’t made this recipe yet, but I’m going to! I just wanted to say that this would be a really easy recipe to make gluten free. All you would have to do is substitute gluten free gingersnaps for the regular gingersnaps and you’d be all set. I’m always looking for gluten free recipe ideas for my family, and this one sounds delicious and is really easy to alter. Thanks!

I made this for Thanksgiving and it was a big hit! I did not have a steam basket so I just boiled the potatoes. Thank you for this recipe!

Anyone tried canned sweet potato?

You can also just boil the potatoes whole with the peeling still on. Once they are tender the peeling basically falls off and the potatoes are easy to mash.

I’ve had luck simply microwaving them — I’ll cut the potatoes into rounds, cover them in a bowl, and nuke ‘em for 6-8 minutes or so (stirring halfway through).

As I was reading the recipe, I was thinking I’d bake the potatoes, as I prefer to do for any sweet potato recipe. It sort of caramelizes them. You can do it in the jackets and then peel off the skin after they cool a bit, or scoop them out.

My pot collection is woefully meager is there another way to prepare the sweet potatoes besides a steam basket?
