Ingredients

Servings

SWEET POTATO FILLING

  • 8 tablespoon butter unsalted; cut into chunks
  • 5 lbs sweet potato peeled and diced
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

TOPPING

  • 4 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg white, lightly beaten
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch cumin

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Melt butter in a large dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the sweet potatoes brown sugar, water, salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then cover and reduce heat to medium low.
  3. Cook, stirring often, until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 45-60 minutes.
  4. When potatoes are tender, remove the lid and bring the sauce to a rapid simmer over medium high heat.
  5. Continue to simmer until the brown sugar mixture has reduced to a glaze, about 5 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, mix together all the remaining ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  7. Pour the potato mixture into a 9×13 baking dish.
  8. Spread the topping over the potatoes and bake until marshmallows are golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
