These creamy whipped sweet potatoes are the perfect balance of savory and sweet, with a lusciously smooth texture. Serve with crumbly bacon and fresh parsley.
For the best results, boil potatoes in salted water with black pepper until fork-tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Drain thoroughly and return potatoes to the pot.
Mash potatoes with butter using a hand mixer, blender (for smoothness), or masher (for a rustic texture). Gradually add warm milk, whipping until creamy.
I mash the potatoes first, then add milk and whip with a hand mixer until creamy. Meanwhile, cook bacon with brown sugar until crumbly. Add more sugar if you prefer a sweeter, savory combo.
Season with salt and pepper. Serve hot with bacon crumbles, fresh parsley, and extra butter.
