📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
2
Poke a few holes in the sweet potatoes and bake for ⏱️ 1 hour or until soft and tender. When the sweet potatoes are cooked, slice them in half and allow to cool.
3
Meanwhile, add the maple syrup and cinnamon to a large soup pot, bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer, simmer for ⏱️ 10-15 minutes or until the maple has thickened and reduced to a syrup. Be careful not to let it get too thick, you just want it to thicken to a honey consistency.

4
Once the sweet potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel away the skins and add the orange flesh to the bowl of a food processor or high powered blender. Add 1 cup of broth and puree until smooth. Slowly stir the sweet potato mixture into the thickened maple syrup. Add the remaining 1 1/2 cups broth, the apple cider, thyme, nutmeg, cayenne and a pinch of salt + pepper. Cook over medium heat until warmed through, about ⏱️ 10 minutes. Stir in the bourbon (if using) and cream. Continue to cook another ⏱️ 5 minutes minutes and then add the cheese + butter, cook until the cheese is melted and the soup is silky smooth. If the soup seems too thick, add more broth to thin. Keep over low heat until ready to serve.
