Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 2 cups heavy cream
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ cup dry bread crumbs
• 4 large sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Butter a casserole dish and fill with even layers of sweet potatoes.

Step 2

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and flour and stir until color deepens a bit. Add cream and simmer until the mixture thickens slightly. Pour over sweet potatoes.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese, and continue to bake until golden brown and melted, 10 to 15 minutes more.
