Honey-Flavoured Sweet Potato Dessert

Total Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 30 grams butter (doesn’t have to be unsalted)
- 3 tbsp milk
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rum
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tsp water (for mixing with the egg yolk)
Preparation
- Peel the sweet potato, and cut into 1 cm thick slices, then soak in water to remove any bitterness.
- Cook in boiling water for about 15 minutes. (When a bamboo skewer can go through, it’s ready.)
- Drain the water, and mash the sweet potato with a masher.
- When the potato is mashed into small pieces, add the butter while it’s still hot, and mix.
- Combine the honey and milk.
- Add the Step 5 mixture into the bowl with the sweet potato and mix.
- Add the rum and mix some more.
- Make your preferred shapes, and place them on parchment paper.
- Brush the egg yolk mixture (1 egg yolk and 1 teaspoon of water) with a spoon.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes at 180°C. Then remove from the oven.
- While it’s still hot, brush with the egg mixture one more time.
- Bake in the oven for 10 minutes at 200°C until the surface turns golden brown, and you’re done.
