I cut the recipe in half, using only one potato for two servings. After baking the potato for an hour at 375F, I peeled off the skin, eliminated the maple syrup and sugar, and reduced the water to a tablespoon before mashing the mix and reheating it briefly in the microwave. My family really liked i - 3/12/13

So easy and delicious. I just boiled, peeled, mashed the sweet potatoes & added the rest of the ingredients, using splenda brown and sugar free syrup. Reheated in casserole dish and served! - 12/11/20

I already have sweet potatoes purchased, now I just need to get some maple syrup! Going to make this for Thanksgiving! Hoping the family will love it! :)

Update (11/26/12): They were absolutely amazing! I'll forget adding the extra water next time though, but they were delicious! - 11/19/12

Purchased my potatoes already diced. Didn't add water. I guess more potatoes would make them firmer. - 5/22/11

Wow! This was so delicious and only 86 calories for a large serving! My kids mowed it down and I passed it off as desert! Yummy!!! - 1/9/11

Delicious! I love the idea of using the cooking water. I did not find the brown sugar necessary and I added some nutmeg as well because I just really like it. I serve this often with fish now. Thanks! - 11/3/10
