White-flesh sweet potatoes are truly an excellent substitute for English potatoes when it comes to making certain dishes. We are already familiar with this alternative in sweet potato salad, mashed sweet potatoes and roasted sweet potatoes. Well here is another way in which sweet potatoes check all the boxes when it comes to the taste and texture highly desired in scalloped potatoes. Scalloped sweet potatoes!

This dish was so well received that some taste testers thought that English potatoes were layered between the slices of sweet potatoes. So, if you are looking for something different to make this holiday, this is it. If you are monitoring your white-English-potatoes intake, this is for you. If you are tired of candied sweet potatoes, make this dish. If you are Bajan and savoury sweet potato pie is a holiday favourite, switch it up with this dish or make this scalloped version and sweet potato pie. Either way, you have a winner on your hands. If you have people coming over that have to watch their blood sugar levels, you can make this version of scalloped potatoes for them.
