Ingredients:
For the sweet potato mixture:
- 3 cups mashed sweet potatoes (about 3-4 large sweet potatoes)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon Vermont Maple Balsamic Vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 eggs
For the marshmallow topping:
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- If starting with whole sweet potatoes, pierce them with a fork and bake until tender, about 45-60 minutes. Once cooled, peel and mash.
- In a large bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes with brown sugar, melted butter, milk, balsamic, cinnamon, nutmeg, and eggs. Stir until well mixed and smooth.
- Spread the sweet potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until the casserole is heated through.
- Remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the top.
- Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the marshmallows are golden brown and puffy.
- Serve warm as a delightful side dish that pairs wonderfully with savory mains, and watch as it becomes the star of your holiday spread!
