Ingredients
- 12 sweet potatoes
- 1 can of crushed unsweetened pineapple
- 1 stick of butter, softened
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 bag of marshamllows
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Directions
- Wash and prick the sweet potatoes and put them in a preheated 450 degree oven directly on the rack for approximately 45 minutes to an hour. (I do this the day before so that they are fully cooled down before I need to peel and mash).
- Peel the potatoes and put into a large mixing bowl. Take the potato masher and mash, add softened butter. Add salt and pepper and vanilla and about a third of a can of crushed pineapple. Add some the juice if the the mixture seems dry.
- Take half of the potato mixture out of the bowl. Add a layer of marshmallows and add the other half of the potato mixture on top of the marshmallows. Top with remaining marshmallows.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake until the top layer of marshmallows are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
