How to Make Maple Cinnamon Sweet Potatoes in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I was looking for recipe ideas the other day and came across this recipe for Maple Glazed Squash. While I do not have any squash handy this time of year, I thought it sounded it would be delicious with sweet potatoes too. I was quite right too! These Maple Cinnamon Crock Pot Sweet Potatoes are so delicious!
I am a huge fan of sweet potatoes. I love getting them as a side at a steak house or having sweet potato casserole at a holiday dinner. I thought this recipe would be a great way to have some yummy sweet potatoes when I just want a few servings with a great flavor and little prep work!
If you have a larger group of people to feed and want to double or triple this recipe, a 6 quart or 8 quart slow cooker would probably be able to do it. However, it will change the cooking time, and if your sweet potato pieces are not in one layer, I would recommend stirring it occasionally.
