Yield makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup bourbon
1/3 cup orange juice
1/4 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 cup chopped pecans
Special equipment: 2-quart baking dish

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 2-quart baking dish.
  • In a medium pot over moderately high heat, combine the potatoes with enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to moderately low and simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain the potatoes and transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add the butter, bourbon, orange juice, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves and beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the pecans on top. Bake until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Serve immediately.
