Creamy yams, a splash of bourbon, and a crunchy bacon pecan crumble on top make this the side dish I want next to everything. Black Garlic Infused Sea Salt and Roasted Coffee Rub bring deep, savory flavor, while Sweet Cream Butter Infused Olive Oil adds rich, buttery notes to both the gratin and the crumble. Every bite of this Bourbon Sweet Potato Gratin is creamy, salty, sweet, and crunchy all at once.

Bourbon Sweet Potato Gratin with Bacon Pecan Crumble Recipe

Ingredients

    Gratin

    • 3 Yams, peeled and sliced thin
    • 1 Tbsp Black Garlic Infused Sea Salt
    • 2 Tbsp Sweet Cream Butter Infused Olive Oil
    • 1 Onion, diced small
    • 2 Cloves Garlic, minced
    • 3 Tbsp Bourbon, chilled
    • 1 ½ cups Half & Half
    • 1 Tbsp Roasted Coffee Rub

    Crumble

    • ¼ cup Sweet Cream Butter Infused Olive Oil
    • ¼ cup Maple Syrup
    • 1 Tbsp Bourbon
    • ½ cup Flour
    • 1 cup Pecans, chopped
    • 1 cup Bacon, crumbled (slightly undercooked)

    Directions

    1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

    2. Arrange the yams in an 8 x 8 inch baking dish. Season with Black Garlic Infused Sea Salt and set aside.

    3. Heat Sweet Cream Butter Infused Olive Oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft.

    4. Deglaze the pan with the chilled bourbon and cook until the alcohol cooks off. Add Half & Half and Roasted Coffee Rub. Cook until hot and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Pour the hot mixture over the yams.

    5. Combine Sweet Cream Butter Infused Olive Oil, maple syrup, bourbon, flour, pecans, and bacon in a medium bowl. Stir with a fork until crumbly.

    6. Scatter the crumble over the yams and transfer the dish to the oven.

    7. Bake until the yams are tender throughout, 40 to 45 minutes.

    8. Serve immediately.

    I made these for family, for Thanksgiving and they were a hit! I’ll be making them for our Christmas gathering too.

    I also gave the recipe to a friend and her and her husband also loved them.
