Whipped Maple Sweet Potatoes

• 4 pounds sweet potatoes (about 7 medium)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork. Place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until very tender when pierced with a knife, 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, halve sweet potatoes. With a spoon, scoop out flesh (discard skins); transfer to a food processor. Add butter and syrup; process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm.
