Notes
As always have fun with this. Nothing has to be exact. This can be a taste as you go recipe! You can even add a few sprinkles of nutmeg to bring out the seasonal spice flavors.
It is okay if you leave some of the skin on the potatoes when you are peeling them. This will do you no harm and will actually add more nutrition to your dish!
For a healthier alternative, switch out your butter with Smart Balance and the brown sugar with Agave sweetener or similar healthy alternatives of your preference.
