Ingredients

  • 1 cup cooked and mashed sweet potatoes
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
  • teaspoon cloves
  • 1 large egg , lightly beaten
  • ¼ cup pecans
  • ½ cup miniature marshmallows

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F (177 degrees C).
  • Place the mashed sweet potatoes in a bowl.
  • In a separate small bowl, create your spice blend by combining brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, allspice, ginger, and ground cloves. Mix well and then add this blend to the mashed sweet potatoes, stirring thoroughly to combine.
  • Next, incorporate one lightly beaten egg into the sweet potato mixture.
  • Prepare a 5x5 inch baking dish by lightly buttering it, then pour the sweet potato mixture into the dish. Evenly sprinkle pecans over the top.
  • Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, take the casserole out of the oven. Add marshmallows to the top and return it to the oven. Bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden and puffy.

Notes

  • Thoroughly mash sweet potatoes: Ensure they are well mashed for a smooth texture.
  • Adjust spices as needed: Tailor the spice levels to suit your taste preferences.
  • Allow to cool before eating: Make sure to let the casserole sit for a few minutes after baking, as it will be hot.
