  • Cook Time: 1 hour
  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
  • Servings: 8
  • Yield: Varies

Ingredients:

  • 600g sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 – 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC), ensuring it’s ready to embrace the flavorful magic of this gratin.

  2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Peel the sweet potatoes and slice them into thin rounds, approximately 1/8 inch thick. A food processor makes this task a breeze, ensuring uniform slices for a visually stunning presentation.

  3. Layering: In a 13 x 9 inch casserole dish, layer the sweet potato slices lengthwise, overlapping them slightly to create an enticing mosaic of flavors.

  4. Seasoning: Sprinkle the layers of sweet potatoes generously with salt, pepper, brown sugar, and a hint of cinnamon. Let each layer be infused with the warmth and depth of these aromatic spices, adding complexity to every bite.

  5. Repeat: Repeat the process of layering sweet potatoes and spices until the dish is filled with tantalizing layers of flavor, each one building upon the last to create a harmonious symphony for your taste buds.

  6. Pour Cream: Once the layers are complete, pour the whipping cream over everything, allowing it to seep into the crevices and infuse the dish with richness. The cream should fill the dish halfway, ensuring a decadent texture and creamy consistency.

  7. Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and let the gratin bake for approximately 1 hour, or until the sweet potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown, tempting you with its irresistible aroma.

  8. Serve: Once baked to perfection, remove the gratin from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. The aroma alone will entice your guests, and each spoonful will be met with sighs of delight and satisfaction.
