Ingredients
- 3 pounds medium sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/8-in. thick
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups shredded Gruyere cheese, divided
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400°. In a greased 13x9-in. baking dish arrange sweet potato slices in rows; set aside.
- In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook until tender, 4-5 minutes. Add garlic; cook one additional minute longer. Stir in flour until blended; gradually whisk in milk and cream. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until thickened. Stir in salt, pepper, cayenne, cinnamon, Parmesan and 1 cup Gruyere. Remove from heat; stir until cheese is melted.
- Pour cheese sauce over sweet potatoes; sprinkle remaining 1 cup Gruyere on top. Bake, covered, 30-35 minutes. Remove covering; bake until cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top, 10-15 minutes longer.
