Steps:
- Make filling:
- Peel sweet potatoes, then halve lengthwise and slice crosswise 1/4 inch thick. Combine potatoes with remaining filling ingredients in a wide 4- to 5-quart pot and simmer, covered, until potatoes are almost tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer potatoes with a slotted spoon to a bowl and boil liquid, uncovered, until reduced to about 2 cups (it will become syrupy), 20 to 25 minutes.
- Make dough and bake cobbler:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 375°F. 3Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Blend in butter with your fingertips or a pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in milk with a fork until a dough forms.
- Gather dough into a ball, then turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead 7 or 8 times. Divide dough into 2 pieces, then form each into a disk.
- Roll out 1 disk with a floured rolling pin into a 14-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick) and fit into bottom and about halfway up side of Dutch oven, pressing against side to help it adhere.
- Roll out remaining dough into another 14-inch round, then trim to a 12-inch round with a paring knife, reserving trimmings.
- Spoon half of sweet potatoes evenly into dough-lined Dutch oven, then top with 1 layer dough trimmings, cutting and fitting trimmings to almost cover potatoes. Add remaining potatoes, then pour syrup over potatoes and cover with 12-inch dough round, pressing edges together to seal. Cut 3 steam vents in top with paring knife.
- Bake cobbler until top is golden, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool to warm before serving, about 30 minutes (dough will absorb most of syrup).
SWEET POTATO COBBLER
My grandmother used to make the best sweet potato cobbler, but, like many cooks, she didn't follow a recipe. I tried many cobbler recipes before I discovered this one. It's a favorite for church dinners and is a special treat at home.

Soooo good! Make it even better by serving with fresh whip cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I also like to use unsalted butter when making this.

MELINDA'S SWEET POTATO COBBLER
My husband loves cobblers that have biscuit dumplings in them but I couldn't find a recipe like that except for in a old Foxfire book. The only problem was that it doesn't give exact measurements. So I came up with my own version by meshing a couple different recipes together. It turned out yummy!

Steps:
- 1. for the dumplings: cut 1 stick butter into flour with a pastry blender until mixture resembles course meal. Add buttermilk, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 3-4 times. Roll out dough with a rolling pin and cut into strips. Cut the strips into smaller pieces for dumplings. Leave about 4 strips whole so you can lay them on top of the cobbler before baking.
- 2. Peel and cut up about 3 small to medium size sweet potatoes. Run enough water in your pan to just cover the sweet potatoes. Bring to a boil. Boil for about 8 minutes or until potatoes are done but still firm. Lift potatoes out of the water using a slotted spoon and set aside. Reserve water.
- 3. Preheat oven to 350*. Put 1/2 stick butter in a 13x9 casserole dish and place in oven while it preheats so the butter will melt.
- 4. To the reserved water add 1 stick butter, sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon. Cook over medium heat until butter melts and sugar dissolves, stirring constantly. You will have a syrupy consistancy. Add small dumpling pieces to the liquid. Boil until the dough firms up a little. Be careful to just gently stir the dumplings so they don't fall apart. Add the potatoes back in with the dumplings and gently mix together but being careful not to break up the dumplings or the potatoes.
- 5. Pour the mixture into the casserole dish with the melted butter. Top the cobbler mixture with the long dumpling strips. Bake for 45 minutes.
- 6. Spread some more butter on top of the browned strips on top of the cobbler and sprinkle with a little sugar. Put under broiler for a minute or so until the strips are browned. Delicious warm or cold or served with vanilla ice cream!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat Oven to 350 degrees farenheit. Cook: Boil sliced sweet potato in water until tender, but not mushy. Remove sliced potato from liquid and set aside. Reduce heat to low. Add: Same amount of milk as you have water from the cooked potato, to the potato broth. Add: Large chunk of butter and stir in water/milk broth until melted. Add: Sugar, vanilla and nutmeg and stir.
- 2. While potato is cooking, prepare dumplings as follows: Mix: All dry ingredients for dumplings in a medium-sized bowl. Add: Shortening (or oil) and work into dry ingredients with a fork until mixed thoroughly. Add: Milk and work into dry ingredients until a dough ball is formed (add small amounts of milk as necessary). Roll out dough very thin onto floured surface. Cut dough into thin (approximately 1" wide) strips and break into 2-3" pieces, dropping pieces into hot broth.
- 3. Remove broth from heat and return cooked potato to mixture. Pour into a deep casserole dish. Place a prepared pastry crust (such as Pillsbury Pie Crust that comes rolled up in a box in the refrigerated section of grocery store, or make your own) on top of the casserole dish and crimp edges to seal cobbler. Dot crust (or brush with melted) butter, and sprinkle with sugar. Cut 4-5 slits in top of crust with a knife to prevent cobbler from boiling over in oven, and to vent steam. Bake at 350 degrees farenheit until crust is brown (approximately 20 minutes). Delicious served hot or cold.

If you want to cut down on the cooking time, and make in camp, use canned sweet potatoes (drained well). Also, to make a little sweeter, baste top with milk and sprinkle with sugar rather than dot with more butter...you could make it in a pie plate resting on river rock or a few canning jar lid rings inside the bottom of a Dutch...
