Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1/2 pound)
  • 3 1/2 tbsp coconut oil, melted and divided
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 3 tbsp packed light brown sugar, divided
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 
  2. Cut sweet potatoes into fries. The size doesn't matter as much as long as they are the same size. Add sweet potatoes to a large bowl. Toss with 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil and salt. When the oil has coated the sweet potatoes, transfer to a large baking sheet. Make sure they're spread evenly, you don't want them on top of each other, otherwise they will steam instead of crisp up. If needed, use two pans. 
  3. After cooking for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and put them back in the bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar and cinnamon. Place back on pan and roast another 8-10 minutes until caramelized. When the sweet potatoes come out of the oven, sprinkle with remaining brown sugar.
  4. Add remaining coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl. Add marshmallows. Microwave for 30 seconds until puffed and you can stir them. They should be melted and drizzle easily. (It will be sticky!) If they aren't melted, microwave other 10 seconds until they are. 
  5. Drizzle melted marshmallows on sweet potatoes. Serve!
