Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium sweet potatoes, about 3 cups sliced
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup self-rising flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar, divided use
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon, or other preferred spice

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the sweet potatoes. You should have about 3 cups. Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Add the sweet potatoes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 8 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are just tender. They should be tender but not falling apart. Drain and set aside to cool.
  • Heat the oven to 350 F.
  • Put the butter in a 2-quart baking dish and place it in the oven until the butter has melted.
  • Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the flour, 1 cup of sugar, and milk; mix until well blended.
  • Combine the remaining 1 cup of sugar with the brown sugar, water, vanilla, and cinnamon. Mix well and add the sweet potatoes.
  • Take the baking dish with the melted butter out of the oven. Pour the batter into the center of the melted butter; do not stir.
  • Gently spoon the sweet potatoes and their liquids into the center of the batter; do not stir.
  • Place the baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet to catch possible spills and bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown.
