Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows

  8. Bake for about 20 minutes until marshmallows are golden brown.

Notes

  • For a crunchy topping, mix chopped pecans with butter and brown sugar, then sprinkle over the sweet potatoes before adding marshmallows.
  • Reduce sugar for a less sweet version or use honey or maple syrup.
  • For a dairy-free option, use coconut oil instead of butter and almond milk instead of whole milk.
  • Add a pinch of ginger or cloves for extra spice.
