Slow Cooker Sweet Potatoes Mash Tips

A few tips to help you get the best ever crockpot Sweet Potatoes Mash of your life.
  • You don’t need to peel your sweet potatoes. You can just cut them up and add in. Try it both ways and see.
  • Make sure to scrub the sweet potatoes clean as you don’t want to be tucking into gritty potatoes.
  • I prefer to cook the sweet potatoes directly in the insert to avoid washing up, but feel free to cook them on a trivet if you prefer.
