RECIPE BY Cooking Light

Chipotle chile peppers come packed in adobo sauce and are available in seven-ounce cans. Because we use such a small amount in this recipe, you can freeze what's left over in a heavy-duty freezer bag for another use.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound coarsely chopped peeled sweet potato
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons fat-free milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons adobo sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 drained canned chipotle chile in adobo sauce, minced

One of our favorite ways to make sweet potato.

These were overly sweet and overly chipotle-y. Strong flavors mean you have to be careful what main dish you serve them with because these will overpower pretty much anything.

Am I the only person who feels that the wording for the chipotle ingredient could be confusing? I was in a hurry when I made this recipe and I quickly read it as ' 1/2 can drained and minced'. I may try this recipe again but not anytime soon.

Great combination of flavors, but I used ONE TEASPOON of maple syrup. This is not a pie! I also used unsweetened vanilla almond milk (40 calories per cup--great stuff!) in place of regular and skipped the butter while doubling the chipotle.
