The only way to eat a sweet potato is baked with gobs of butter and a heaping spoon of brown sugar. If that’s not your thing and you still have sweet potatoes left over from Thanksgiving, give this dish a try.
Ingredients:
- 4 medium sweet potatoes cooked and mashed (Canned potatoes can be used, but why?)
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup belted butter
- ¼ cup pineapple juice
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
Topping #1:
- 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers or your favorite buttery cracker
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup melted butter
Topping #2:
2 cups mini marshmallows
Directions:
Preheat Oven to 350⁰.
Mix your ingredients in a large bowl. Transfer to an 8” or 9” baking dish. If using topping one, mix ingredients together and sprinkle over potato mixture. Bake uncovered until bubble (160⁰) for about 25 minutes.
If using Topping #2 do not sprinkle with marshmallows until the end. Put back in the oven until marshmallows melt and brown.
