About This Recipe “My family is Canadian so we incorporate maple syrup in any dish we can. The combination of the sweet potatoes with the maple syrup and cinnamon is warm, spicy, comforting, and perfect for fall. This side crosses the line between savory and sweet, creating a complex flavor profile that adds to any meal.” - Recipe shared by Sophie Paradi, EN ‘24
