Mashed, scalloped, fried, as a sweet potato casserole I can’t get enough sweet potatoes. Hey all! Sam back from The Culinary Compass. I’m bringing you the perfect side dish for your Easter dinner! Or a great addition to Mother’s Day Brunch. It’s quick and full of flavor! You will love your sweet potatoes prepared this way.
The sweet potatoes are covered in maple butterthat is so delicious you may just want to eat it on its own.
Scalloped Sweet Potatoes with Maple Butter has some great sweetness from the maple syrup paired with the savoriness of the butter, sweet potatoes, and rosemary. It even has a little heat from some cayenne to cut the sweetness!
The amount in the recipe gives it enough to give some heat without the spice. If you’re looking for some sweet and spicy, add a little bit more cayenne!
I used a mandoline slicer to cut these thin in no time at all. Use the guard that comes with it to make sure you avoid cutting your fingers! You can definitely use a knife if you don’t have one! It’s just easier to cut them evenly with a mandoline.
My favorite mandoline slicer can be found here.
I cut them to be about 1/8″ thin which I found to be a good thickness for really tender potatoes. With that thickness and 30 minutes in the oven, Scalloped Sweet Potatoes with Maple Butter be fork tender and melt in your mouth! If you like crunchier potatoes, try cutting them thicker or cutting the time that you have them in the oven.
If you have an oval or circle dish, try lining up the slices of sweet potatoes in a circle to give an even better presentation!

I have been making scalloped sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving and church suppers every year and I do it a little different every year and get rave reviews. I always use 3 different colored sweet potatoes and layer them in a glass casserole. Last year I did similar dish with maple syrup and butter less the cayenne. I usually slice the potatoes about a 1/4 inch. This year, I used the mandolin and layered 9 rows of 3 different colors with the maple syrup between and I tripled the recipe so it took about 3 times the length of time. I also sliced the casserole in 1.5" squares just before serving so the different layers could be seen. I think this was the best presentation and taste of all the years I have been tweeking this dish. If there are any leftovers, it is great with bacon for breakfast or crumbled bacon for another side dish.
