Sweet Potato Casserole with Marshmallows
Adapted from Stephanie Phillips recipe at https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/13478/sweet-potato-casserole-ii/Sweet potato casserole is a Thanksgiving essential—just the right touch of sweetness without being over-the-top!
Ingredients
- 5 sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced, around 16 cups
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 3 Tbsp orange juice
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
- 1 24 oz bag large marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a steamer with boiling water, steam the sweet potatoes for 30 minutes.
- Transfer steamed sweet potatoes to a bowl.
- Add sugar, butter, orange juice and cinnamon.
- Mix with an electric mixer until blended and pureed.
- Spread evenly into a 9x13-inch baking dish. I found that it also fits in a 7x11-inch baking dish or any size in between the two.
- Place marshmallows in a single layer over the mashed sweet potatoes.
- Bake in the oven until marshmallows are slightly golden brown and melted. About 25-30 minutes.
