Welcome to our make-ahead Thanksgiving series for 2017
this is all because of you and your
suggestions when I ask some social media the things you wanted to see the most for this holiday season the
Response to make ahead dishes was so overwhelming that I knew I had to do it
Not only am I bringing you videos
But I have created a recipe cookbook --let that will be available on my website
These recipes will be able to be made in advance anywhere from two weeks to two days so on to today's
recipe
Today we're going to show you how to make these delicious twice baked sweet potatoes that have a brown sugar
Chipotle and pecan streusel on them these are amazing
They smell incredible, and they go together super fast you can
Freeze these ahead and have them ready for your meal, or you can bake them off immediately. Let's go see how these all come together
You're gonna want to bake off your sweet potatoes cool them what you're gonna want to do to make your sweet potato boats is you're
gonna take a
Tablespoon and just scoop it out. I'm gonna stick this in a bowl over here
like that
You don't want to take out all of your filling all of your potato
Meat so to speak because you want there to be a bit of a wall
So that it has some structure
Just like we did when we did the zucchini boats, this is a you know a similar procedure like differs the same technique
And don't worry these are gonna look pretty in the end anyway, so if they look a little bit yucky right now
Don't even worry about it
Getting this kind of thing done ahead of time can really take a lot of stress off of your Thanksgiving Day
Especially if maybe this is your first year hosting and you have been tasked with that job that can be daunting and it can be
Really really frightening if you've never you know cooked Thanksgiving before
but maybe you have contributed like brought a couple of dishes to the meal that your mom hosted I
Understand I have never cooked Thanksgiving for a large number of people
but I'm pretty confident that I could do it is all of our sweet potato insides and
We're just gonna. Honestly. This is super simple. I'm not gonna make this complicated
Because we're gonna put a lot of the flavour in the top
I'm gonna add this little bit of heavy cream in here, and I'm just gonna beat this together
Now you've got a nice mixture that we're going to spoon back inside of our sweet potatoes so
We need to divide this up four ways
Our sweet potato part is done now. We're gonna make our streusel, so I'm just gonna set this back over here
And I'm gonna grab another bowl, and I'll be right back okay
we're gonna make our streusel, and we're just gonna put all of these things in this big jug I
Love you know
What we call chop and drop kind of things?
My butter has been out a little while so it might be a little on the soft side when you do yours
Please use cold cold butter you got to get your hands in here now okay, and what you're gonna. Do is you're gonna create this
crumbly delicious streusel
And I can smell that chipotle powder
And it might sound like a little bit of an odd take but it's gonna add that little bit of heat
And it's really gonna add some smokiness, and it's gonna be great
So just keep working this with your hands until you get what resembles a beautiful streusel with different sizes of crumbs
And sometimes you can get your both of your hands in there
You don't want there to be any dry portions of flour left behind you want that all to be
Incorporated into the mixture and that's how you want it right there
You want it to be crumbly and beautiful because as this bakes
the butter is going to
Mix with the flour and it's gonna create these beautiful crumbs and that's how you make it like when you make a crumb cake you
Can put as much or as little streusel on top as you like?
What we're gonna do is bake these off for you today. These are only gonna take about 30 minutes in the oven
From this stage
but the beauty part is you can make these ahead and
freeze them and what you would do is at this point
Now that you've got your streusel and everything I do recommend doing it on the pan you're gonna freeze them on
Just give them a little bit of a pat down like that because you want everything just just to hold together
When you have to transfer them to your freezing tray. I have a little streusel left over
And that's because I made the recipe for the streusel, but I didn't make all of the sweet potatoes
So I'm just gonna pop this in the freezer
And I'll use it another time for more sweet potatoes without a problem. This is gonna freeze, beautifully
I'm gonna wash my hands, and I'll come back, and I'll show you how to freeze them
All right
I have prepared these to go into the freezer and the beauty part is when you use these foil pans
You can also just take them directly from their freezer and pop them into the oven easy peasy stuff now
Today, I'm gonna be baking these off right away
I'm gonna put these in a 400-degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes until
everything is bubbly and the streusel has set and become crunchy if
You want to make these ahead you stop at this point?
And then what you're gonna do obviously I think you would put more than four in here
you can easily I think probably fit six if you moved everything over and then stacked a couple over here I
Have these fantastic lids that fit on these pans and in if you're interested
I will leave links below where you can get these pans and these lids I
Always have these in my house, and they are a godsend. I'm telling you
They're great for leftovers or for when you have to take something to a church member
for a meal
And we'll go twice-baked
Chipotle
Streusel
Sweet potatoes
Baked from frozen
Uncovered
400 degrees one hour
There you go
That's all you would do then you would pop these in the freezer let them freeze
You know you don't have to worry about them after you put them in here with the lid on it
You can just organize this and these are ready to go for your Thanksgiving or your celebration day no problem, but for right now
I'm gonna remove this
And I'm gonna bake these off and then I'll bring you back, and I'll show you what they look like when they're ready to serve
There you have it these for baked for about 25 minutes and they're perfect
They smell incredible, and I can't wait to taste them. Are you ready?
You got it you got a taste you know that you know it's a rule, okay, so let's see you take this one
It's absolutely gorgeous
And you can hear
That crunchy streusel topping
Mmm. Look at that so good, and it's hot but look at how pretty that is oh my gosh this
The potato no
But good hot but good working for
You're always saying you're Riskin, so you're just you know. Oh my oh that's good
Mmm
And you saw how easy these were to put together
You can make several of these in advance and just pop them in the freezer and on the day that you're ready to cook them
Lay them out in the sheet pan or in the pan that you froze them in and just bake them off
They're gonna take at least an hour once. They're frozen even if you're cooking them from frozen
Or you can throw them out on the counter
For a couple of hours, and then just pop them in your oven for a half an hour
and you're good to go my goodness that is amazing and
I wouldn't let you know that chipotle flavor is so so mild you just get a little bit of heat
And you get a little bit of smokiness from it, but it really does add something
But like I said if you're not into that leave it out
These are gonna be delicious with or without it, and if you want more Chipotle flavor
You can feel free to sprinkle some more chipotle powder right over the top
But this gives it a nice mild heat in the back of your mouth, and it's gonna be great so oh, it's good
