Ingredients
- 4 large sweet potatoes (8 ounces each, scrubbed clean)
- 1/3 cup fat free milk (or milk alternative such as almond)
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Chopped Pecans
- 3/4 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F. On a baking sheet, (lined with foil for easy clean-up if you wish) prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork.
- Bake until tender, or until a fork inserted in the thickest part has no resistance, 55 to 65 minutes.
- Allow to cool for 10 minutes so they are easier to handle. Meanwhile reduce oven to 350F.
- Cut sweet potatoes in half and carefully scoop out flesh with a metal spoon and transfer to a large bowl, leaving about ¼-inch of flesh intact.
- Mash with a fork or potato masher and add the milk, vanilla, maple syrup, salt and cinnamon.
- Spoon back in the potato skins leaving it fluffy, top with marshmallows and pecans and bake 8 to 10 more minutes, until the marshmallows are golden.
