Time 1h20m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 large sweet potatoes
3/4 cup (11/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup light brown sugar
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup toasted pecan pieces
1 cup miniature marshmallows

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Wash the sweet potatoes, scrubbing them well to remove any dirt. With a fork, prick the sweet potatoes in a couple of spots and place them on a sheet pan. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center goes in easily.
  • In a large bowl, mix the butter, brown sugar, and flour together until it's crumbly-looking. Add the cinnamon, salt, pecans, and marshmallows; fold the streusel topping together to combine.
  • Slice the sweet potatoes lengthwise down the center and push the ends towards the middle so it opens up. Stuff the sweet potatoes generously with the streusel topping and return to the oven. Bake for another 20 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and brown.

HASSELBACK SWEET POTATO WITH PECAN STREUSEL



Hasselback Sweet Potato with Pecan Streusel image

Sweet potatoes come in different colors, from white to yellow to orange to orange-red. The darker the inside, the sweeter it is. I chose white because I was adding maple syrup and brown sugar, but any sweet potato will do.

SWEET POTATO & BANANA MASH



Sweet Potato & Banana Mash image

A bit different way of serving sweet potato, not as sweet as usual with the taste of buttered pecans being the perfect offset.

Provided by Steve_G

Categories     Yam/Sweet Potato

Time 2h20m

Yield 1 batch, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 lbs sweet potatoes
3 ripe bananas
4 ounces unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar (more or less)
2 tablespoons honey
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, in a skillet
16 ounces pecans
8 ounces dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons of cold butter, cut into small chunks

Steps:

  • Wash sweet potatoes and roast in a in a 375°F preheated oven for 75-90 minutes, or until soft and starting to release some juice.
  • Add bananas during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  • While the potatoes are cooking melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet and toast the pecans over a medium heat, tossing often.
  • All the butter will be absorbed and the nuts will be slightly fragrant.
  • Add a bit of salt and toss again.
  • After roasting let the potatoes cool enough to just handle them, peel and mash with bananas, melted butter, granulated sugar and honey.
  • Season to taste and add more sugar if desired (it will depend on your taste and how sweet the veggies are to begin with) In a small bowl mix the 2 tablespoons of cold butter into the brown sugar with your fingers, it'll be lumpy, but that's OK.
  • Spread the mashed mixture in a buttered baking dish, cover with pecans and sprinkle with brown sugar/butter combination. Bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes until the topping is partially melted.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas and sweet potatoes for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have brown sugar, you can use granulated sugar and add a teaspoon of molasses.
  • You can use chopped walnuts or pecans instead of pecans if you prefer.
  • To make the streusel topping ahead of time, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • You can also freeze the mashed sweet potatoes and bananas for up to 3 months. Just defrost them in the refrigerator overnight before using.
