Sweet Potato Butter


What do you do when you have ten extra sweet potatoes?
Stir up some potato butter! This butter is homey-mellow, warm and spicy.
Alabama may have to rewrite their "Song of the South" : "sweet potato butter, and I'll shut my mouth." :0)

Sweet Potato Butter
Roast 2-3 large sweet potatoes in 400F oven for about 1 hour, or until soft.
Peel and put sweet potato in blender, or food processor. (Or use and immersion blender). Process until pureed.
Put sweet potato puree in heavy large pan over medium heat. (Should be about 3-4 cups of puree).
Add: 2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 cup of water (or unsweetened apple cider)
1 tablespoon lemon
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon cloves
Stir frequently over heat
