Sweet Potato and Goat Cheese Gratin

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 3/4 cup milk
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1 small garlic clove, minced
• 8 ounces fresh goat cheese, softened
• Salt
• Freshly ground pepper
• 3 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced lengthwise 1/8 inch thick
• 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs

1. Preheat the oven to 275 and brush a large baking dish with 2 tablespoons of the melted butter.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, cream, honey and garlic and bring just to a simmer.
3. Remove from the heat.
4. Whisk in the goat cheese and season generously with salt and pepper.
5. Line the bottom of the baking dish with a slightly overlapping layer of sweet potatoes.
6. Top with 1/4 cup of the goat cheese cream and spread evenly.
7. Repeat the layering with the remaining sweet potatoes and cream, pouring any excess cream on top; you should have about 5 layers.
8. In a small bowl, combine the bread crumbs with the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter and scatter over the sweet potatoes.
9. Cover the casserole with a sheet of buttered foil and bake for 1 hour.
10. Remove the foil and bake for 1 hour longer, until the sweet potatoes are tender and the top is golden.
11. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving.
