The grocer had organic sweet potatoes in stock, so I took advantage and brought some home. I'm freezing them for winter meals.
Yesterday, I baked several, then allowed them to cool completely. I added a bit of water and organic broth to the pan. I pierced each sweet potato a few times before placing in the covered pan.
After I removed the foil, I sliced each sweet potato in half to cool faster. I removed the skin, mashed them, and froze them in individual servings.
I did not add anything to the sweet potatoes. Five sweet potatoes gave me 5 - 1 cup servings.
If you have frozen sweet potatoes with added ingredients, I'd love to know how they turned out and tasted.

A lot of sweet potatoes are grown here in the NC Sandhills. Many have been harvested in the past month, and after the machines go through, you can see entire families out there picking up the ones the machines missed. It's back breaking work, but it's nice the farmers let the poor nearby their farms do this to get sweet taters for their families for free.
We always just eat ours with butter, salt and pepper. Yum!!! Don't know about freezing them, no room in the freezer.
God bless.
