Ingredients
* 4 pounds sweet potatoes approximately 5 to 7 medium sweet potatoes
* 1/3 cup brown sugar
* 1 teaspoon cinnamon
* 1/2 teaspoon paprika
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon pepper
* 1 egg
* 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
* 1 cup pecans
* 2 tablespoons melted butter
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
* 2 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
For the sweet potatoes:
* Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
* Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, piercing them with a fork.
* Bake the sweet potatoes whole for about 45-55 minutes, or until they're tender.
* Cool the sweet potatoes until almost completely cool.
For the filling:
* Peel the sweet potatoes and mash them until no lumps remain. We like using a potato ricer to make sure there are no lumps.
* Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, paprika, salt, pepper, egg and heavy cream to the bowl with the sweet potatoes and mix well until smooth and combined.
* Grease a large 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish and add the sweet potato mixture to the baking dish, smoothing out the top.
For the topping:
* Be sure your oven is preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
* Add the pecans, brown sugar and melted butter to a bowl and toss well until the pecans are coated in the sugar.
* Sprinkle the marshmallows over the top of the sweet potato layer, making sure to evenly distribute them over the top.
* Sprinkle the pecans on top of the marshmallows, distributing them evenly.
* Bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until the marshmallows are golden brown.
* Let the casserole sit for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Make-Ahead Instructions
To make this casserole ahead of time:
* Bake the sweet potatoes up to 2 days ahead of time. Cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to assemble the casserole.
* OR Prepare the casserole just until ready to add the toppings. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to two days. Add the topping just before baking.
Storage Instructions
Store any leftovers in a airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat before servings.
Reheating Instructions
We recommend re-heating leftovers in a baking dish in the oven for best results (until heated through), but they can also be reheated in the microwave.
