Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Peel and roughly chop the sweet potatoes into equally sized chunks for even cooking.

Add the butter, heavy cream, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to the sweet potatoes.
Step 6
Use a potato masher or an electric mixer to mash the potatoes until smooth and well combined.
Step 7
Transfer the mashed potato mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 8
In a small bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, and olive oil to create the topping.
Step 9
Sprinkle the breadcrumb and cheese mixture evenly over the top of the mashed sweet potatoes.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 20–25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy.
Step 11
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 12
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or additional Parmesan cheese, if desired, and enjoy!
