Step 1

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium low heat.

Step 2

Stir in the sweet potatoes, then stir in the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Gently stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cover.

Step 3

Cook, covered, for 40 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are fork tender. Stir 2 or 3 times while they are cooking, being very gentle as you stir so as to not break up the potatoes as they cook.

Step 4

When the potatoes are tender, add in the salt and vanilla. Gently stir one more time to combine. Serve and enjoy.
