- Hey, y'all, it's Jamie Deen!
0:02
Still in Mama's kitchen!
0:05
It's Thanksgiving, y'all
0:06
and you're gonna have sweet potatoes, right?
0:09
You can bake sweet potatoes if you want.
0:11
You could bake 'em and slice 'em
0:13
and cover 'em with marshmallow cream.
0:15
You can whip 'em. You can eat 'em whole.
0:17
You could also put 'em in a casserole dish,
0:20
like we're doing today.
0:21
This is our sweet potato bake, y'all.
0:23
We started with some fresh baked sweet potatoes.
0:27
Theresa did these for me this morning.
0:32
And for this part, we're gonna add sugar,
0:41
some butter, of course,
0:46
we have a teaspoon of vanilla,
0:51
and I know I shouldn't be measuring this over the bowl,
0:56
teaspoon of this here cinnamon,
1:00
and I'm not gonna do that,
1:05
and a quarter of a teaspoon of fresh nutmeg.
1:15
How much is a quarter of fresh nutmeg y'all think?
1:26
Lastly into this, we're gonna add our two eggs.
1:39
Now we're gonna whip this up,
1:43
just to get this blended.
1:46
I made sure to pull myself out
1:48
a super dangerous little small bowl to use.
1:50
Why would I use a bigger bowl
1:52
when we can ramp up the excitement level?
1:57
(beaters whir softly)
2:02
I love sweet potatoes!
2:06
Now that I've got this mixed up,
2:08
we're gonna add lastly our milk.
2:13
(beaters whir softly)
2:19
It looks easy when I do it, I know it does,
2:21
'cause I have Theresa helping me
2:24
and then all I have to do is talk and mix.
2:27
But I cannot tell y'all, you've got to find recipes
2:31
that are easy for you to handle this time of year,
2:34
unless you have a big family or a lot of helpers,
2:39
'cause you do not want to let the stress of the day
2:41
override what we're here for,
2:43
and that's to enjoy each other's company
2:45
and give thanks for all the blessings that we have.
2:49
Look how beautiful that is.
2:50
This is a perfect little bowl for it, too.
2:55
But you know we gotta have a top for that,
2:57
and our topping for that's gonna be very simple.
3:00
We're gonna mix together,
3:08
we have some nuts, you gotta have your pecans,
3:14
got some butter here that I'm gonna add,
3:18
and then I also have our flour.
3:20
I'm gonna mix this up a little bit
3:22
before I put our flour in here.
3:24
I did spill a little bit of this butter,
3:27
but I think we'll be all right.
3:31
Now, our flour here is gonna give us the thickening,
3:37
And now, Mom says use a fork to beat this up.
3:39
So you're not ever gonna get this completely smooth.
3:43
We just want to incorporate as much of this as we can,
3:46
'cause our sweet potatoes is pretty loose
3:51
and so that juice and everything
3:53
is gonna bubble up outta there.
3:55
And on top of this casserole, all we do now.
4:09
That looks delicious.
4:11
I'm thankful for y'all.
4:12
I'm thankful for sweet potatoes
4:14
and I'm thankful this is a pretty easy recipe
4:16
We sure are busy around here.
4:18
I'm gonna put this in the oven at 350 for maybe 45 minutes.
4:22
Y'all check down below,
4:23
you know Theresa's gonna check me on all of that.
4:25
It's going in the oven.
4:26
We'll see you when it comes out.
4:28
Hey y'all, our sweet potato bake is out of the oven!
4:33
You know it's not a day of filming for me
4:35
unless I cauterize my lips together
4:37
'cause I eat everything when it's too hot,
4:39
but I cannot help it.
4:45
Sweet potato bake, you know what,
4:47
I made a pumpkin dump cake that my Aunt Trina did,
4:52
and she had an icing on top of that cake
4:55
that would be delicious on this side dish of sweet potatoes.
5:13
You cannot mess up a sweet potato.
5:14
All it needs, a little bit of sugar,
5:16
a little bit of butter, and the nuts on top.
5:19
This is delicious, really easy.
5:22
Everybody at your table will be thankful
5:24
that you made this this year.
5:26
Y'all better get going!
5:28
It's almost Thanksgiving.
5:30
Pop back in here sometime,
5:31
Mom will have some good tips for you too.
5:32
I'm Jamie Deen. This is "Good Food".
5:34
We'll see y'all around the kitchen.
