Serves 4 Prep Time 10 minutes Cooking Time 45 minutes
1/2 kilo sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into uniform cubes
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste
For the chestnut-oatmeal crumble
1/2 cup chopped and peeled chestnuts
1/2 cup oatmeal
3 tablespoons brown sugar
sprinkle of cinnamon
4 tablespoons butter

1 Boil sweet potatoes until fork-tender. Drain well, then add butter, cream, and seasonings while very hot (so that it becomes creamy, not starchy). Whip with a handheld mixer or potato masher. Place in an oven-proof dish and top with chestnut-oatmeal crumble.
2 To make the chestnut-oatmeal crumble, mix all ingredients until mealy. Set on top of the sweet potato and bake in a preheated oven at 350F for 10 minutes.
