Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups mashed sweet potatoes
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Prep the Potatoes: If you haven’t already, cook your sweet potatoes. Once fork-tender, peel off the skins and mash the flesh in a large bowl until smooth.
- Mix the Base: To the bowl of mashed sweet potatoes, add the sugar, beaten eggs, milk, melted butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Use a hand mixer or a sturdy spoon to blend everything together until it’s completely smooth and well-combined.
- Bake: Pour the sweet potato mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to bubble.
- Add the Topping: Carefully remove the dish from the oven. Evenly sprinkle the mini marshmallows and pecans over the top. Return the dish to the oven for another 5-10 minutes, until the marshmallows are golden brown and puffed.
- Serve and Enjoy! Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.
