- 4 pounds sweet potatoes
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup bourbon
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
Preheat oven to 400°F. Peel sweet potatoes and slice into 1/2″-3/4″ slices. Place in a greased rectangular baking dish, in one or two layers.
Bring remaining ingredients to a boil in a saucepan. Pour over sweet potatoes. Cover with foil.
Bake for approximately 1 hour. Uncover and continue baking until liquid is somewhat thickened, about another 30 minutes.
If needed, cover again until serving, to keep warm.
