Instructions
- Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place in a large saucepan and cover with cool water so that the water covers the potatoes by 1 inch. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Continue simmering, adjusting the heat as needed, until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, then return the potatoes to the pot.
- Add the half and half and chipotle chile powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and remaining 3 teaspoons salt.
- Mash to your desired consistency.
- Immediately add the Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and butter. Stir until evenly combined. Taste and adjust spices and salt as desired.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and top with thyme. Enjoy warm.
